Text and Image: My Storybook

In the month of December, 2014, our Weekend Art Classes focused on the concept of 'Text and Image' - to narrate a written story i.e. text through Visual Arts i.e image.

On Sunday (7th December) the kids made their first story-book.

The classes ran through every Saturday & Sunday [Kids (4 - 9 yrs) 11.00 am - 1.00 pm

Youth (10 - 15 yrs) 3.00 pm - 5.00 pm]/

Art is very similar to spoken/ written language. Both, art and language are a vehicle for the transmission of ideas. Which visual imagery emerge in mind when we read a story or hear one? How can a text or word be communicated through Visual Arts? Which elements one is required to concentrate upon in a literary piece [For e.g. a Jataka story or a Panchatantra one] to build a painted or illustrated version of it? What could be the Visual language of such a composition?

Our effort is to value inner expressions and to channelize ways of seeing and perceiving word-text-image.
