This project was not only aimed at teaching students basic color theory, but also to get them thinking differently about the term diversity.
Diversity has been a common topic of discussion at Walker since we've adopted the theme of International Studies.
I found that, when talking about diversity, students were having a difficult time seeing diversity as anything but cultural. I thought having them create "diversity color wheels" would help them see that there are many types of diversity.
Diversity means variety, or assortment. Each student had to choose a theme and create a variety of designs based on a common theme.
Theme: Birds
Students also had the option to create a color wheel based on elements of a specific culture...if they were more comfortable with that route.
This student chose Japan.
Theme: Butterflies
Theme: Underwater Creatures
Theme: Sonic Gems and Rings
Theme: Smiles
Theme: Fingerprints
Theme: Flowers
Theme: Anime
Theme: Flowers
