Sammendrag
In the workshop, the reflective use of drawing in learning processes has a central place. In
natural science, sober observational drawing has been important for the description and
classification of nature. But drawing is much more. Drawing is about leaving traces and is an
important process for communicating, visualizing, reflecting, explaining, describing, and
understanding. We draw to explore life and create an expression of impressions in the
encounter with the outside world. Drawing also contributes to the development of motor
and cognitive skills. Through drawing, participants will explore a waterdrop and create visual
expressions from their impressions in their encounters with the smallest organisms in Arctic
ecosystems. The participants get a theoretical introduction to ecological relationships and
experience how to make microscopic preparations and observing these under the
microscope. In this practical aesthetic work, participants are challenged to recreate the
organism they observe under the microscope by drawing its shape and colouring it with
pastel chalk.
