Pattern from around the world - How pattern connects to our diverse cultural backgrounds

This presentation describes how pattern from around the world can be reflected in Art and Design in the use of motif and colour.
I am from the North East so my example of pattern making references the mining industry but the powerpoints also reference local landmarks in London.
I have tried to create a SOW that references the diverse cultures in my classroom and how their culture can inform their pattern designs.
The idea is to create a batik pattern with reference to African colours and meanings within the motif.
The next process is a clay tile using Islamic Art as a source. Beatriz Milhazes could be referenced and Mexican day of the dead.
The last process is a collage using Japanese/Manga pattern or Ryan Guiness inspired modern day references in his pattern work.
