Year 5 Art – Exploring the Work of Yayoi Kusama

This half term, Year 5 pupils have been exploring the work of renowned contemporary artist Yayoi Kusama, taking inspiration from her iconic pumpkin artworks and distinctive use of polka dots.
Pupils have applied their learning to create their own colourful pumpkin drawings, experimenting with pattern, facial features and vibrant colour combinations to develop individual and imaginative designs.
The finished pieces showcase the pupils’ creativity and understanding of pattern, with each artwork demonstrating a unique interpretation of Kusama’s distinctive style.
Well done to Year 5 for their fantastic efforts and creative achievements!
