Art & the Cosmic Connection
Middle school students explored NASA images of planets, asteroids, comets, and moons as part of their epic Art and the Cosmic Connection project. Using the elements of art - shape, line, color, texture, and value - students analyzed these images to determine their geographic and atmospheric conditions. For example, straight lines often indicate tectonic activity, while squiggly lines indicate liquid or wind erosion. After examining a variety of photos from NASA, students chose a favorite to recreate on a small scale using chalk pastels. Their work is displayed in three frames, which can hang vertically or horizontally. Each 28.5" X 9" piece is labelled on the back with the artist's name, as well as information about what cosmic object their work represents.
