Assessment CriteriaUnit 4: 1.1 Critically compare a range of materials and

processes used in art and design through experimental application.

1.4 Evaluate the use of materials, processes and technical skills to support own art and design activities

Unit 4: 1.1 Experiment with different materials and techniques

within these taster sessions 1.4 Write about these sessions. What did you use? How

did you use it? What are the materials like? What are they used for? Did you enjoy it? How did your test piece turn out? WHY?

Side Cutters

Cutting tool for wire. Used by artisans, jewellery designers, electricians and other tradesmen

Page 7: Unit  4 – Introduction to materials, processes and technical skills in art & design

Long nose pliers

Excellent for intricate manipulation because of their shape and they are easier to create curves. They are also able to cut wire. Used by artisans, jewellery designers, electricians and other tradesmen

Chicken wire

Galvanised material that is used for fencing poultry live-stock. It can be used to support as a base to support concrete and cement in housing. Artists use it as an armature base for paper-mache, mod-roc and clay sculptures.

Aluminium Wire

Modelling material that is easy to bend and shape but holds its form. It is available in a variety of thicknesses and is used for armatures, jewellery and sculpture

Health and safety

Mind your fingers and hands with the pliers, cutters, mesh and wire

Watch the wire doesn’t unravel or go into your eyes

Creating a 2 dimensional form

Select a photograph from Uphill and draw it onto A4 paper.

Use the tools to manipulate the wire and “trace” over your image using the wire in

Use one continuous piece of wire to begin with Incorporate wire of a different thickness to give different

linear qualities

Creating a 3 dimensional form

Select a photograph from Uphill. Use the tools to manipulate the wire and create a 3

dimensional sculpture Use the wire in any way to create your sculpture Incorporate wire of different thicknesses if required

Evaluation

Write an evaluation of today’s materials and processes lesson

Remember: What did you use? How did you use it? What are the materials like? What are they used for? Did you enjoy it? How did your test piece turn out? WHY?

Homework

Think about how you are going to create your final outcome using the skills from these taster sessions

Choose an image which you will use for your Uphill project

Consider how the final outcome will look. Will it be a sculpture, jewellery, 2 dimensional, 3 dimensional, a water colour painting, embroidered part of a garment, or anything else you can think of

Use research to help you with ideas!
