This half term, Year 5 have been looking at space-themed art.

We have been looking at illustrations from the ‘Space race’ era; exploring how imagery was used and how it influenced art and design; learning the term retrofuturism and evaluating images using knowledge of the formal elements. 

Gaining inspiration from Teis Albers's piece 'Moonwalk'; considering how drawing can be developed through printmaking and creating a collagraph printing plate.

We then created our own visions of the future.
