Who am I? Creative workshop: KS1 to KS2 — Impressions Gallery

Workshop using collage to explore identity, inspired by our exhibition Nalini by Arpita Shah.

This creative workshop focuses on the theme of identity. In the first part of the workshop, pupils will go on a journey around the exhibition searching for objects and symbols that represent Arpita’s British, Indian and and African heritage.

In the second part of the workshop, pupils will be given a range of images, objects and words to help them think about their own identity.

In the final part of the workshop, pupils will get creative making collages exploring their own identity. Pupils can then take their collages back to school.
