Art Educator

When standing outside of the Community Dome, you are met with the self portraits of Ms. Hullets second grade class. Each triangle designates space for each student to illustrate their individuality. When drawing their self portraits, students reflect on the parts of themselves that they love and want to share with the world. When you enter the dome and stand inside the curving walls, you are exposed to the internal expression of each student woven together to create one large colorful mass. On the inside triangle, the students reflected on how they feel and allowed themselves to express their feelings and energy through abstract art. The intimate experience of being inside the dome reveals us the emotional state of the classroom community. This final sculpture reflects on the way that Ms. Hullett’s class has worked together this semester to make collaborative art pieces while participating in conversations of community and individuality. The individual triangles that make one cohesive whole embodies the important role of every single student in Ms. Hullets Classroom Community.
