Art: Indian Influence


The girls are doing a clay project with their hands.  Yes, they are going to hand build and they will be making sculptures of their own hands.  Mrs. Hiivala (our MICA student teacher) introduced the students to different ways the hand is used in Indian culture through mudras, dance, gestures, and palm reading. Today the girls made coins with self-generated symbols that represent their futures considering their life line, their heart line and head line.
