A18 Creating Carnival masks from recycled paper

  • In order to get ready to our second year task, the projecting and making of carnival dresses, we have started working on simpler parts: face masks.

    We used recycled newspaper and organic glue made with hot water and flour.

    We tried to make a CREATIVE use of the newspapers we read at school making our Carnival masks. We learnt from prof.ssa Prencipe the papier machè technique which is the same used by our wonderful artisans who make the huge floats which parade along the town streets of Putignano at Carnival

    Here is this year winner: Gulliver and the Lilliputians....Enjoy it and wait for next year Carnival when we will host you all
