MERCREDI, JE CREE !
Julien Laporte’s Blues
Led by visual artist Isabelle Mencion
Creative workshop for children aged 6 to 12.
Dive into the blues of the Mediterranean… Starting with an exploration of Julien Laporte’s work, the children will discover the richness and poetry of the shades of blue that make up his luminous landscapes.
First, they will observe the artist’s works to identify and name the different shades of blue, then learn to distinguish between primary and complementary colours using the colour wheel.
Together, they will understand how composition and contrasts create balance in a work of art.
During the workshop, each child will create a Mediterranean landscape using black-and-white photocopies: it’s up to them to add the colour! By mixing, layering or experimenting, they will create their own palette of blues and choose a complementary colour to bring out the best in their composition.
A moment of sensory exploration, combining observation, learning and creative freedom.
