Los Maestros Creativos Proyecto
Description
With this project, each student chose a favorite creative master that fluently speaks Spanish (artists, writer, actor, etc). Then we chose our favorite work from this person and identified the main historical and cultural forces that shaped the creator. Then we recreated the work that we chose with the medium of our choice.
Products
- 2 minute digital presentation that documents the forces that shaped the creator and their work.
- Re-creation or re-expression of the creative master's work.
- Spoken piece in Spanish expressing the student's feelings about the creative master and the work that they chose.
Re-Creation
"Moths" by Carlos Amorales
The original work was a room filled with cut out black moths that were placed on white walls. I chose to re-create this through a painting because it's enjoyable for me.

Challenge Option: Re-Expression
"Bird" by Carlos Amorales
I created an image of a "shattered" bird on the top of a chocolate torte to show that his art is rich and full of meaning.

Written Piece Segment
English:
I think that my creative base has been stretched in that I wasn't creating what I saw in my head, but I was interpreting someone else's thoughts and re-creating them.
Spanish:
Creo que mi base creativa se ha estirado en que yo no era la creacion de lo que vi en mi cabeza, pero yo soy la interpretacion de otra persona pensamientos y recrearlas.
