This ArtPlay blog displays art activities that I, Emily Kissner am collaboratively involved in facilitating. My group of KCAI volunteers and I do art works with participants at a Kansas City, local Woman's shelter. I enjoy posting information that I find interesting, inspiring, useful, and/or challenging to people interested in activism, art, community, teaching and culture.

Children's Self-Portraits Reveal Personal Narratives
Children's Self-Portraits Reveal Personal Narratives
I really enjoy that in this article the speaker/ teacher really take the time to analyze and take children's art into serious conceptual consideration. I believe that children's art indeed is packed with personal symbols and meaning. If you ever have questions about this you should ask a child about there art, they will tell you a whole story about the piece.

These are some images from a Power Point that I created to show at the end of semester critique. These are pictures and descriptions of the material that was presented at the Elucidate Show at KCAI. Please read and behold carefully the descriptions are 50% of the art in my opinion. If you want to get a closer look at the images you can click on them to make them larger. Also there are some questions at the end that may or may not apply to blog readers but if any apply to you please leave some comments.

I feel that if you watch this it may help inform the other videos.This video focuses more on world social view on girls and woman. I think that having the knowledge and information that these videos deal with help me make a difference in my life and in the lives of the people that I am in contact with.
