As a culmination of the project, students were given the theme “Consume, Consumer” to interpret and create an original artwork. Planning, developing and refining ideas are important parts of creating effective and meaningful artwork and students are required to record and present their process. The quality of work produced was very high and the students all worked very well to create highly successful artwork throughout the project.
Gawa’s “Consume, consumer”
Joseph’s triptych “Consume consumers”
Yodsel’s anamorphic drawing and evaluation
Liisa’s “Nothing is infinite; Consumerism must stop”
Isaac’s planning and installation views for his 3 dimensional piece “Hangman”
Sydney’s “Consumer”
Tiana’s “It’s in you, is it?”
