Part 3｜《风里的记忆》Memories in the wind 🤍
这是我们画室第一次让所有学生一起参与的展览。过去的展览通常只会挑选部分学生的作品进行展示，但这一次，我们希望让每一位学生都有机会参与，无论年龄或绘画程度。我们相信，每个孩子的作品都值得被看见与被肯定。
相比起比赛，我们更希望学生参与展览。每个孩子都有自己的审美与表达方式，而有些创作并不适合用比较来衡量。我们希望通过这次经验，让孩子在没有压力的情况下表达自己，建立信心。
在创作开始前，我们邀请学生画下一个他们在麻坡最难忘的瞬间，以「我在麻坡的一瞬间」为主题进行创作。在过程中，我们发现很多孩子画的是生日、家人，以及与父母相处的时刻。这让我们意识到，对孩子来说，最珍贵的往往是被陪伴与被关注的时刻。
我们也观察到，年龄较大的学生在构思时，往往比年幼的孩子更容易感到困难。这或许反映了随着成长，我们逐渐更在意结果与标准，而减少了对想象力的依赖。这个项目也提醒我们放慢脚步，重新去观察生活，并珍惜当下的每一个瞬间。
This project marks the first exhibition that includes all students from our studio. In previous exhibitions, we usually selected only a small group of students to showcase their works. This time, we wanted to create an opportunity for everyone to participate, regardless of their age or skill level. We believe that every student deserves to be seen and appreciated.
Instead of encouraging students to join competitions, we chose to involve them in an exhibition. Every child has their own way of seeing and expressing the world, and it is difficult to measure creativity through comparison. We hope this experience helps students build confidence and feel comfortable sharing their ideas without fear of judgement.
Before starting, we invited students to draw a moment that they remember most clearly in their life in Muar. The theme, “My Moment in Muar", allowed them to reflect on their own experiences. During the process, many students chose to draw their birthdays, family members, and time spent with their parents. This reminded us that what children value most are simple moments of attention and companionship.
We also observed that older students often found it more difficult to generate ideas compared to younger children. This reflects how, as we grow up, we may become more focused on outcomes and expectations and less connected to imagination. This project is also a reminder to slow down, to observe, and to reconnect with the small moments in everyday life.
