The work submitted is based on the work of Yayoi Kusama. The children have created their own self-portraits in the style Kusma placing 'dots everywhere'.
The clay work was also inspired by the Flower Sculptures of Yayoi Kusama. The children looked at images of them and design their own clay sculpture in the same style.
