Given I have been outside of the art and classroom space for some time it was such an enticing experience getting to see key notes in person. Tony Albert was such a standout, his generosity and passion left me wanting to start a standing ovation. When I return to the art classroom he will absolutely be a the top of my list for artist to investigate.
In terms of application to my classroom practice in a casual capacity (at Milkwood) the break out session creative starting points with Nicole Barrikat offered such wisdom in her invitation to play. All of the drawing activities and ideas ignited something in me as a creative that I haven’t experience for a while. the first invitation was so simple but perhaps my favourite, the artist places groups of. randoms object on table to be collected in silence and to simply start arranging them, then you were invited in silence to collaborate with others. I will be adding these ideas and inspiration straight my arsenal as they would be perfect for any year level. Overall being able to particulate in this conference with other AENT members was a major factor in having such an enriching experience.
