Course Description

Teacher in Charge: Mr G. Bridge.

Strand - Creativity and Innovation

This course merges the Visual Art fields of 3D Design, Graphic Illustration and Sculpture where you will learn to create multi-dimensional art works. The course is built around a student inquiry, whereby students select from a range of briefs and over the course of a semester follow the design process to find visual solutions. You will learn to explore and communicate visual ideas, expand your conceptual thinking and create effective art works. As your multi-disciplinary practices evolve you will use appropriate processes and procedures to record, generate, refine ideas and create final design decisions.
