Dale Chihuly Unit

4th Grade did an entire unit on Dale Chihuly.  After watching a movie about his work, students created paper sculptures based on his Macchia series.






Next we used the Macchia bowls as inspiration for watercolor paintings






Finally each student designed a plastic plate that was baked.  When heated the plates shrink up into beautiful organic shapes.  Photo of the final instillation to come!
