Len Lye

Year 2 from St Thomas' kick off the third year of Ikon Insiders with a really fun visit to see the work of New Zealand artist Len Lye. He made kinetic or 'moving' sculptures and beautiful experimental films by painting directly onto the film itself and so he had no need to use a camera!

As you can see from these stills, many of his films are very colourful and he liked to use lots of colour and pattern.
