Art I students looked at the Puzzle Art Installation Collaborative Project run by artist Tim Kelly. Then, they were asked a series of questions about their favorite things i.e. favorite food, sport, season, hobbie, etc. After this, we discussed visual literacy- how you can say something without any words. Students discovered how they could represent themselves using visual symbols of things that they like. After this, each student designed a puzzle piece that represents them. Each puzzle piece starts out blank, but in the end, each one is unique- just like each one of us. The idea is that there are no extra pieces of the universe- we were all put here for a reason. By connecting all of our puzzle pieces together in my classroom- Art I students show each and every one of us that we all fit into the jigsaw puzzle of life.
