wonder'neath - "Collaboration makes big dreams possible." (Mark Cooper)

wonder'neath was a temporary fantastical space created with grade 5/6 students at SJAM through a stayed effort schoolArts program. 

The idea was that working with others really allows us to stretch our own possibilities and opens us up to new experiences.  We worked over six sessions  to create a large scale, layered, mixed media artwork that was shared in a performance for the school community.

A giant canopy was unwound and opened for the audience to enter and share.  Inside hung 'objects of wonder' that moved and swayed as the students (dressed in shiny gold capes!) held up the canopy using 10 large poles.
