Shoebox Living




I like the concept for this project, Shoebox Living.

"125 Children aged between 8 and 10 were given a shoebox and asked to recreate their bedroom, or a room from their home, and to write a few sentences about it."

This is an interesting medium, and an interesting prompt for young children.  How would four- and five-year-olds deal with the idea of taking something they fit in and minaturizing it?  The use of recycled and reused materials adds an interesting element to the finished product, too.

Recycled Construction











There was no glue or tape today - just boxes of materials. Everyone participated. And I'm beginning to see the incredible value of temporary constructions.

Il n'y avait pas de la colle ni du scotch aujourd'hui - juste des boƮtes de choses. Tout le monde a participƩ. Et maintenant, je comprend la valeur des compositions temporaires.
