Art Creative 

Practice

Units 1 & 2 

What is the subject about?

In Unit 1&2 Art Creative Practice, students focus on the making of art and examine how artists communicate ideas and meaning in artworks. They explore the practices of artists who have been inspired by ideas relating to personal identity. They study at least three artists and at least one artwork from each of the selected artists. Students use a range of materials, techniques, processes and art forms to create a body of experimental work in response to their research of the practices of artists and their personal observations of artworks. They also explore the collaborative practices of artists and use the Creative Practice to make and present artworks.
