Block sculpture:  This is a project which Heather Gani ran with groups of students.  It was inspired by Anthony Gormley's Block Sculpture series.  Students worked together in groups of 3.  Initially the student made observational life drawings one another, and then took photographs of each other, exploring the pose they wanted to recreate using blocks of polystyrene off cuts.  This is a challenging project which requires the group to communicate effectively and work well together.
