Radial Quilt Squares
A Whole School Art Project
Every young artist in our school created a quilt square in our 2nd Art class of this school year. Individually, they represent each artist’s interpretation of the Art challenge. Together, the quilt squares create a colorful unified pattern.
The Art challenge of the lesson was to create a unique radial design that is both similar and different from the designs of classmates, with the intention that the completed pattern, created by a large group of artists, will have both variety and unity in the overall design.
Inspiration was found in traditional quilt designs with the Drunkard’s Path pattern, and in radial designs from Islamic tiles. Here are some examples of the images that provided our inspiration.
