This Art and design video supports teachers in guiding learners as they explore the impact of space and scale in installation art. Inspired by artist Cai Guo-Qiang’s explosive techniques, learners experiment with materials to create miniature installation boxes that imitate dramatic, large-scale effects.
This video is part of Kapow’s Art and design resources, aligned with the Cambridge Primary Art & Design Curriculum Framework (0067). As part of the Sculpture and 3D: Interactive installation unit, this lesson encourages collaboration, creative experimentation and an understanding of how artists use space and materials to express ideas.
