The children in years 5 and 6 have created this Banksy style graffiti as part of our theme. It is known that the Vikings used to graffiti by carving their name in runes on buildings and monasteries. To inspire our writing (a balanced argument), the children worked together to create what can only be described as a work of art! The children used a range of skills and had to work through a number of steps in order to get to the final product. Their craft was of a high quality and it was clear that previous explorations had developed their skills. We used a Banksy piece of artwork that was recently discovered in Hull and we put our own twist on it. I’m sure Banksy would be proud of our efforts!
What do you think? Is graffiti art or vandalism? Leave your comments below (this will help us plan our writing!)
Wow I really love this-the detail on the boy is amazing, he looks like a superhero. I wonder what Banksy would think of it-perhaps you could send him a pic?
I think graffiti is definitely art it tells a story and makes us think
which is what art should do-its a
bit like doodling with spray paint!
I think I need to see it in real life!
Fantastic art work years 5 & 6, it looks amazing!
WOW that is amazing did kids draw them because it looks like a professional
