| An
old tree stump has been pre-drilled so that they can develop their ideas
by sticking small branches in it and then adding things. For the base area,
which picks up the triangular shape found in the nearby pylon, they have used
some sand found on the site. The finished work is quite an impressive sight.
It is a temporary sculpture which will last only a few days. The beautiful
colours of nature are used in this finished representation of an electrical
insulator to emphasise light and power. |

| Children working
on ideas and themes in groups. Discussion among the children is encouraged
and at the end of each session the artist and staff ask the children to
comment on each others work, their interpretation and use of materials. |

They have been looking at shapes and lines seen in the pylon above them. |
