Shaun Hunter is an amazing artist who creates some really interesting pieces. I shared this one as part of our discussion on ravens. It prompted a good conversation on art (why a soup tins) and ravens. We used the Wikipedia page "Cultural Depications of Ravens" which covered raven accross cultures and time, as the starting point for our time and had a conversation about how these stories were different and the same. We also shared our favourite raven story and talked about what raven made us feel. Joel and I have raven wedding bands so we had some good memories to share. I had planned to do a couple of crafts making ravens and had found a coulouring book of the raven steals the sun story, but we never got there. This conversation worked well and I am planning to retry the crafts as part of our summer learning program.
