Taller de dibujo y construcción de juguete educativo- Escuela Primaria “ El niño artillero”, San Isidro Llano Grande
Ana Bidart was the winning artist of the joint call of the SOMA Educational Program and Casa Wabi Foundation. Ana Bidart developed a workshop for elementary school children where they built their own mobile artifact to draw. Through experimentation with small-scale drawing, children learn to recognize the space we inhabit from another perspective, its different surfaces, shades, textures and features that compose it.
