Seawalls Tairāwhiti

Yesterday (Tuesday 24th October), our hub was shown the Seawalls Tairāwhiti art.
Seawalls Tairāwhiti was an event where artists came into Gisborne and painted and sprayed pieces of art on walls all around Gisborne with the theme of "save our oceans".
We all chose a piece of art that spoke to us.
I personally chose this art, "Cracked Ink", by Sean Duffel. The reason this art spoke to me is all the detail. To me, the two characters represent humanity. The way their turned away from each other shows how we're ignoring our problems and disagreeing with ourselves. Especially since they have their eyes closed.
I feel that the reason the artist drew blue "waves" along the bottom showed to me that we're trying to cover our problems by trying to cover our dirt and trash with "lovely" water.
I see the objects in the background as coral. For me it's saying how we bleach our coral colorless. But I also see them as if they were the tall ugly buildings that we surround ourselves with.

Shop Day


At Gisborne Intermediate, there is an important day called "Shop Day". What happens is all classes come up with a product to sell at lunchtime of Wednesday 24rd October, tomorrow. Our classes have decided to sell Candy Bags, Candy Floss and Savoury Pies.
The money we earn (or hope to earn) will go to future trips for our class at the end of the term.
We hope we can earn lots.
