Exploration: Body Mappings
Overview
The Body Mapping project is a student led research project looking at identity and body image. The students, which were formed of six year 10 (aged 14-15 yrs) textile artists, led a project that opened up a visceral conversation around bodies and body image with a group of yr 8 (aged 12-13 yrs) students.
