You are going to make a drawing disco! You will have to think about shape, light and space! You are going to think about how to make the artwork move after you have made it too, as it’s meant to be a kinetic (that means moving) sculpture! You need to grab a few friends to make it with and then you can all rave in your brilliant neon art installation once you have finished it. http://www.tate.org.uk/kids/make/cut-paste/neon-drawing-disco
