Description of Activity
Students explore a range of painting and drawing techniques to represent figurative forms, using a variety of surface effects and textures that integrate photographic images and collage.
Context
Students have investigated and manipulated a range of materials and techniques such as impasto, encaustic, shellac and release printing, incorporating photographic images, collage, papers and text. They have considered compositional aspects and devices and have developed tactile and rich surfaces to represent ideas about the figure to an audience.
Areas for Assessment
Outcomes
A student:
5.1 develops range and autonomy in selecting and applying visual arts conventions and procedures to make artworks
5.2 makes artworks informed by their understanding of the function of and relationships between artist – artwork – world – audience
5.3 makes artworks informed by an understanding of how the frames affect meaning
5.4 investigates the world as a source of ideas, concepts and subject matter in the visual arts
5.5 makes informed choices to develop and extend concepts and different meanings in their artworks
5.6 demonstrates developing technical accomplishment and refinement in making artworks
Criteria for assessing learning
(These criteria would normally be communicated to students with the activity.)
Students will be assessed on their ability to:
- demonstrate awareness of the conventions and techniques of 2D artmaking including mixed media and collage, evident in the selection and refinement of painting and drawing techniques to develop surface textures and effects
- understand how the structural frame can be used to represent ideas through experimentation with visual qualities such as organisation of composition, manipulation of a range of materials, integration of collage, colour, scale, shape, texture, and juxtaposition
- investigate the relationships between the agencies of the conceptual framework in communicating ideas about the figure in a visual form to an audience.
