Rodin

Rodin kept models of legs, feet, arms, hands and small heads to use as casts for his sculptures.

Young artists considered Five Limbs and a Small Head of Pierre de Wissant, in a Box and then recreated Pierre de Wissant in his entirety, with a body attached.

Rodin used sculpture to depict movement, often twisting the body and arms of his works to simulate energy.

Young visitors channelled Rodin and drew themselves running.
