MYP Visual Arts: Grade 9
This year one of our projects included investigations into photography and printmaking. We learnt the approaches photographers must take to create effective compositions and then developed our own photographs into carved lino block printed outcomes.
MYP Visual Arts: Grade 10
One particularly rewarding project was our ‘deep dive’ into major 20th Century art movements and artists. Each student selected an artwork from a selected decade and followed a journey of research and analysis about that work and the context it was created in. We then created our own final artworks that explored a contemporary issue, its style and concept directly inspired by the researched artist.
IB Diploma Visual Arts Year 1
Our Visual Artists have spent the year engaging in their introduction to the IB Diploma Art course. We have explored numerous materials, techniques and processes, learning along the way how to professionally document this in portfolio format. While working on our Art Criticism based ‘Comparative Studies’, we have started to create resolved artworks that express our chosen individual themes and concepts.
Grade 12 Visual Arts Exhibition
Our Diploma and High School Visual Arts courses came to their conclusion with the staging of a major final exhibition of resolved artworks. The vast range of media explored and the complexity of concepts conveyed were a testament to the journey our students had embarked on throughout their final year.
