Kandinsky: Sound of Colors

Like visual art, music can energize us, make us think, feel and so much more! When combined with art making, music can lead to new creative visions. This is particularly true for those with synesthesia, a condition that causes one to see colors, shapes and movement when listening to sounds. The famous artist Wassily Kandinsky experienced this and created a series of improvisational paintings that we will explore in this workshop. Students will then tune in to various genres of music that will inspire their very own colorfully creative compositions, reflecting sights through sound!
