‘Locked In’
The artworks are an exploration and a culmination of learning from Year 6 students in Visual Arts lessons looking into creativity.
The project started with an inquiry into what inspired people to create visual artworks. After identifying many different sources of inspiration and experimenting with a variety of media, our year 6 artists chose their own piece. Students have been encouraged to work with a high level of independence, taking risks, experimenting with different techniques and selecting their own subject matter and materials.
A selection of whole year group pieces from our ELC and Year R-6 and from some of our staff will also be on display.
Additionally, students have been working with residents from KAPARA Glenelg Residential Care Home to create intergenerational artworks, fostering connections across ages through collaborative art.as part of the intergenerational program.
