"It's Amazing That My Palm Print Is on the Mural"... Daegu Gosan Elementary, 600 Students Join Mural Project

Daegu Gosan Elementary School (Principal Kim Kyungsook) announced on November 24 that it had successfully completed a "collaborative mural project," in which all students and the university student volunteer group worked together to decorate the wall of an old school storage building.

This project was designed to allow students to directly participate in improving their school environment, thereby fostering school pride and a spirit of cooperation, as well as providing an opportunity to experience the meaning of artistic collaboration.

Daegu Gosan Elementary School Palm Mural Created by All 600 Students Together

First, the volunteer group visited the school and created an outline drawing across the entire wall of the storage building. Afterwards, all 600 students completed the mural by stamping their palms in the paint color of their choice and filling in the outline. The students' palm prints came together to form a vibrant rainbow, resulting in a lively and colorful mural.

Going beyond a simple activity, the students expressed high satisfaction at having their own palms become part of the artwork. The students shared their excitement, saying, "It's amazing that my palm print is on the mural," and "I'm proud that our school looks even prettier."

A representative from the volunteer group said, "It was meaningful to be able to create a work of art with the young students," and added, "The children's free and unique palm prints brought the mural to life."

Principal Kim Kyungsook stated, "By completing the mural together with the volunteer group, the students naturally experienced the meaning of artistic collaboration," and expressed hope that a culture of students directly shaping their school spaces will continue to grow.
