Art Space
Art Space continues to provide an avenue for students to connect and come together at lunchtime, and let the creative juices flow. In week 2 we let the students create their own puzzle with street art markers. Many year 7s, mostly girls, participated.
In the last two weeks students enjoyed making origami. Origami is the art of paper folding and is often associated with Japanese culture. We folded the popular origami flowers using tissue paper. The flowers turned out amazing.

2022 Artist In Schools (AIS) - Damian Curtain
Our Artist in School program is now underway and Damian Curtain (sculpture artist and environmentalist) is working with the Year 9 Urban art class on a project titled ‘Nature embedded’.
The AIS Project, ‘Nature Embedded’, will focus on using the Art Elements of line, shape and texture. The artist & class teacher will work in collaboration with the Year 9 Urban art class to brainstorm, create and present a sculptural piece to the KSC community within the grounds of A Block.
But……. we need your help!
We would like timber to use for the project. Artist, Damian Curtain is after 600mm x 600mm cypress pine. We are keen to see if we can source this timber to be provided as a donation to the 2022 AIS Project.
If anyone has any contacts please contact the College and ask for AIS Project Coordinator- Helen Briffa, Visual Arts Domain Leader – 9890 9662
