Blak Superheroes

In this one-off workshop, students will engage with visual artworks by Dylan Mooney, a proud Yuwi man from Mackay, Queensland, with connections to the Torres Strait and South Sea Islands. He is an artist with disability who creates paintings, drawings, and digital illustrations in an exciting comic book style. Dylan’s artwork tells stories about strength, survival, and love. Your students will be excited by contemporary art practice and do a drawing activity exploring symbols before expanding on descriptive language and characterisation. Students will create their own superheroes with a unique and powerful talisman, sharing stories in the form of a short narrative. Students will develop skills to make their writing more personal, inventive and engaging.
