Fabric - IVE

A sculpture can be made of anything. It can be any shape and size. Can you fold, twist, gather, peg, tie or wrap to make new shapes?What shapes can you make? Can you see through it? What does it feel like? What else can you wrap up? Can you guess what’s inside?

Bumpman Portrait

Bumpman is a character who appears in several sculptures by German artist Paloma Varga Weisz, including one which is currently outside the Henry Moore Institute in Leeds, as part of our exhibition Bumped Body. Make your own artwork inspired by Bumpman.

- - Look at the sculpture. Who do you think he is? Where did he come from? Why is he bumpy? Write your ideas down- Draw a portrait of Bumpman using the materials in your bag. Use shading, or different colours to make your drawing look 3D so he looks really bumpy!- Make your own Bumpman sculpture using the modelling clay- D- Draw and sculpt some new characters inspired by Bumpman. What creatures might he be friends with? What strange shapes and textures could you give them?- Write a story or poem about Bumpman (and his friends) to go with your drawings and sculptures
