In order for the younger and bigger group to function we´ve had to adjust the way we communicate. This we have done by using simpler language and checking frequently that we have been understood. In order not to impose our concept of art onto the girls we´ve taken the habit of asking them their views on art and reasons why people make art. Although "art" as a term appears to be unfamiliar for many, some more practical explanation with samples of what art can be has given a spark for a discussion.
"To become famous."
"To keep the mind fresh."
These were two of the girls´answers on why people make art. Through our conversation we have also learned that some of the girls have previous experience in drawing.
