About this lesson

A multi-activity museum teacher unit built around Hilma af Klint's symbolic visual language: students research religious symbolism and compare it to her Altarpieces, translate a scientific concept into their own progressively abstracted symbols, and develop personal visual shorthand for life stages before comparing it to af Klint's own.
