Celebrating Cultures

The Kete Celebrating culture, I created a poster board about my culture of South Africa, I had a few conflicts of what I would make but I thought I would go out of my comfort zone and just pushed myself, It was very hard to think of things to write about or put on the board. But I had decided to write about my life in Africa and a map of South Africa with some animal information, Then for some reason I made a Springbok out of clay to push it further.

Art - Collage

In art we were given a task of doing a collage of anything we could find in a random magazine, and it took awhile to find something that interested me but once I saw this one bright yellow page with a wine bottle and the quote saying "It's an Italian thing" I knew I had to improvise something with it which was a difficult task to do since nothing really matched or made sense together but I took advantage of that and tried to make it as complex as possible.

After some Intense thinking and constantly going back to the drawing board I came up with masterpiece, one thing I'm really proud of is the hammerhead shark in a sequence skirt then I plopped in some flowers and the leading lines to try and make the wine the focus.

Paul McCartney wrote this song and was the only Beatle to play on it. It was the first time a Beatle recorded without the others, and marked more independent accomplishments among the group. While John Lennon and Paul McCartney wrote The Beatles early songs together. This was the first Beatles song that could not be reproduced live without additional musicians.

Gallipolli

The Last Post is a song that has been around for hundreds of years, its sound one of the most distinctive in existence. Citizens and members of militaries worldwide are able to recognize its somewhat haunting, poignant notes, played by a single bugler. It is a tune that bonds people together, going past the country, city, and religious lines that divide us all.
