‘Falling out of the sky’ Anissa, age 5, Sydney Australia

Issue 8 – Art of falling: the untimed tumble of ideas, responses and feelings to curious thoughts and unexpected events. 
 
BIG Ideas: Write a poem that falls down in the middle. Trip yourself over and turn it into a dance. Drip paint onto a page while standing on a chair. Collect 8 fallen objects you find in your room and make an installation on the kitchen bench. Compose a song high on a swing.  Write a list of things that fall. Stand in the rain and record the music it makes on your umbrella. Create an imaginary artwork in your head while you are falling asleep. Draw or write what the art of falling feels like. Think of 6 impossible things. OR create something of your own imagining inspired by the theme – Art of falling.
