BASURAMA IN THE SCHOOL!!

The Ondara students will do a workshop with the BASURAMA collective of artists and architects, from the 13th to the 16th of april. The workshop is named "Design ourselves": it consists in an intervetion in a urban space with residues and the production of some mobile elements, adaptable to different outdoor spaces than will improve its habitability. They will allow a lot of different uses due to the climate conditions and the needs. This objects will be done with residues accumulated before the workshop.

You'll see the results when you come to Spain!!

Rush hours!

We’re finishing our productions and works to be carried during the second mobility in Spain, from the 19th to the 24th of April.

Devoted to the theme of game playing and some sort of scavenger hunt, we meant our presentation to act as a teaser for our partners and hopefully create interest and suspense........

Our pupils have worked a lot on several themes.

They can be proud of what they have achieved !

Here are some clues : are you good at jigswaw puzzles?

Welcome Najime !

Friday 29th of January, Najime came for the first time in our classroom. He showed us his artistic work by a commented Power Point, and he introduced us with the art of graffiti and calligraphy!

Pieces of puzzle

The participants of the project will receive large wood pieces of puzzle. Colbert has got nine pieces. The pieces will complete the fresco of Najime HOCINI and will be stuck on the wall.
The pupils have divided into small groups. Three or four people work on the same piece of puzzle. It will mix the art of graffiti, calligraphy, drawing and painting. The technique used will be acrylic painting and not aerosols, because it’s not allowed to use aerosols inside the classroom.
To welcome the tramway and to symbolize the opening and the mixing of cultures, five groups will work on the theme of the five continents, and four will work on the theme of the tramway.
When the themes were delivered, almost all pupils wanted to work on the theme of Africa! We also decided to make a collective work especially for that piece of puzzle. For the other themes, we have made drawing lots!

Graffiti !

Do you know the art of graffiti ?
Here at Colbert, some pupils of 4eme are very lucky. They have the opportunity to welcome an artist of Reims in their art classroom for a few. He signs his artistic productions with the pseudo SER but his real name is Najime HOCINI. He’s a graffiti artist.
He has been invited by the city of Reims to join an artistic and sociologic project which takes place in Orgeval. He will produce a large fresco made of graffiti on a big wall in the heart of the neighborhood,precisely at the bottom of the big chimney which warms all the houses of Orgeval.

The fresco holds greatness in store! Nothing less than 50 meters long and 4 meters high!
The project is not only the work of Najime HOCINI. The inhabitants of Orgeval are invited to take part in the work, aiming at learning to discover the art of graffiti, and leaving a message on the wall.
The fresco is made to welcome the new tramway in the district. This is a real revolution for Orgeval, and that will completely transform the way people move from one place to the other. It will be easier for them to reach the city center, and to have access to the shops, cultural places, cinemas, parks, mueeums… They will not be isolated anymore. It’s a real metamorphosis for the neighborhood of Orgeval.

With Najime HOCINI, the pupils of 4D of Colbert will leave their track on the wall and be part of the city history!
