Reflection and Rebellion A Loudspeaker project Autumn 2021

Exploring Sculpture by Women
We visited another gallery - Djanogly Art
Gallery to see the exhibition called
Breaking the Mould:
Sculpture by Women since 1945.
In the gallery we assembled sculpture from
cones, wire, acetate and string, exploring
tension, balance and space.
We looked at a sculpture by Sarah Lucas,
made from stuffed tights which looked like
intestines or female anatomy.
We went on to make our own sculpture
with a pair of tights. Some of us had
no perceived notions of the outcome,
while others had a strong idea, although
everyone’s work had unexpected results.
“It’s nice to have the opportunity to
express ourselves and not be false;
show our quirks”.

was feeling safe and being supported,
not judged.”
