Project |01 Esquiste Athletes
For this project students were asked to draw an athlete using proportions we set up for them and using the colors of the flags provided by teachers. Students cut up their drawings into three sections and traded with their classmates until a whole new group of athletes was created which represented all groups coming together during the Olympics.
