Glynn Vivian Gallery - Porcelain Worksheets

Abstract

These worksheets facilitated school children’s activities during visits to the porcelain collection at the Glynn Vivian Gallery, Swansea. They were used during the school workshops conducted by the AHRC-funded 'Future Memory in Place' project. For examples of work produced by school pupils using this resource see the relevant sections of ‘School Workshops - Works Produced by Pupils’ (link provided above). This project united visual art and ancient history through contemporary landscape painting and research on migration in the ancient world, archaeology, manuscripts, objects, journeys, uncharted maps and music. It was enacted through school workshops and community gatherings around Swansea, and gave over 2,500 school pupils the opportunity to learn about how people relate to the place where they live or have lived, and how memories and the experience of migration can be expressed in art.
