Construction of a Diatom!!??

A Diatom is a small organism that has the unfortunate privaledge of being the first animal in the food chain on the beautiful seafront sands at Weston Shore.

Landscape architects, working with artist Abigail Downer have been helping to develop the designs for many of the public art projects along Weston Shore. Loveart artist Kate Whyley will be working alongside 3 other artists (Abigail, Dan and Rosie) as well as Liz Smith (Southampton city council Public arts officer) to create Southamptons biggest land drawing on the landfill site at Weston Shore: Come down Saturday and Sunday afternoon and see what we are creating!

Mela Festival 2006

Children involved in Loveart activities at the Mela festival this year featured on
Meridian television!

Today: Saturday 12th August 140 children monoprinted 'henna' designs on T-shirts. Some made amazing unqiue painted T-shirts which were displayed at the Mela festival organised by Art Asia. Children were inspired by Asian designs at this fantastic festival at Hoglands Park in Southampton. The activities were free and gave children the opportunity to experiment with colour, pattern and printmking skills.

Many thanks to the organisers for asking us along to the fun filled day again!
