Symbolic Self-Portraits



 















Symbolic Self-Portraits

Artist Focus: Kara Walker

Vocabulary: Silhouette

Medium: Collage

Special Education Art Lesson - Middle School-Age Students

Materials: magazines, glue, scissors, silhouette cutouts, black construction paper

*Note* Some of our students were able to trace silhouettes by using a flashlight and partnering up against the wall, then tracing their partners shadow with a pencil. This was difficult in many classes, so I drew many of them or had them trace on the table. Either way, you could create a male and female or various templates for your students to trace. See what works!
