In a timespan of ± 6 weeks, we design a piece of outdoor furniture and use the mosaic technique to make it. An artist comes to inspire the designing process by talking about and showing art of Hundertwasser, Gaudi, Picasso etc. After this, children make their own design; the most convincing images are selected and combined into a final design for the picknicktable. Hereafter, children cooperate to make the final mosaic on the picknicktable.
"Bigger projects often take place in in a context of citizen participation projects and initiatives. Local residents create mosaic projects for their neighbourhood, park or urban area. This results in community art where people make art together in their social environment".

RRI-PRINCIPES - Responsible Research and Innovation (link: RRI-principes)
De Europese RRI-principes zijn bedoeld om wetenschap en onderzoek op een verantwoorde manier aan te laten sluiten bij onze maatschappelijke waarden:
Vul hieronder in op welke manier jouw project aansluit bij deze maatschappelijke waarden:
|
Bestuur (Governance) |
School works together with an artist but school remains responsible for execution of the projects. |
|
Maatschappelijke Betrokkenheid (Public Engagement) |
We work on respectful interaction with materials, nature and fellow citizens by stressing aesthetical and ethical implications of our conduct. |
|
Gendergelijkheid (Gender Equality) |
This project is open to everyone and anyone. |
|
Wetenschapsonderwijs (Science Education) |
Design is a function of usability. |
|
Ethiek (Ethics) |
Rather than stressing the competitive aspect of the selection process, we focus on a healthy consensus building process, cherishing every child’s input and effort. In line with the Reggio Emilia approach we stimulate mutual respect for unique personality traits and expressions. |
|
Beschikbaarheid van Project en Uitkomsten (Open Access) |
We will share the process and outcome on the OSOS portal; we will feature the project on our school website and the artist will show the project on his portfolio.The cost of the project is 2500 for materials and paid hours fort he artist. |

Can we make a more beautiful picknicktable for our patio?
Imaginar
IMAGINE
Children work in duos or alone on their proposal for a part of the picknicktable. They sketch it out on a A3, using colour pencils or paint. They reflect on their proposal and prepare a pitch.

CREATE
De leerlingen gaan de uitdaging aan / student do the challenge
Children cooperate and translate the selected designs to a mosaic mold. The scale is enlarged and the basis for the mosaic is created. Then, broken tiles are used to create the imagery in a mosaic technique.
Aanvullende materialen / Extra materials
It requires specific expertise to attach the mold to the table and prepare the table for the actual process. This will be done by an expert. The children will witness this process online. They will create the mosaic themselves in a cooperative process.
