A collection of works by top Year 13 Photography students is the latest exhibition to open in the Small Gallery in E Block.
In the Mind of a Student displays a dazzling array of diverse approaches to photography, exploring a broad range of themes including light, energy, decay and isolation. The works are part of each student’s collection on an individual theme, offering an insight into the minds of a variety of students.
Earlier this year the gallery exhibited Below the Skin, a show of Year 10 drawings. The works were unified in their observation of the human face in pencil. They explored both the skeletal system below the skin and the underlying personality of the various sitters. The students involved should be very proud of the quality and skill of their submissions.
Inked exhibited 40 wood block prints by Year 10 students in the class of Ms Andre Sampson. The art explored the theme of nature and movement in a range of colours, surfaces and textures. They varied stylistically; some were delicate and used subtle lines and restrained colour choices, while others were bold and energetic. The subject matter of animals moving through water and air tied the pieces together to create a cohesive, visually satisfying show.
Students, staff and families are welcome to visit the Small Gallery in E Block to view the shows. The Gallery is open Monday to Friday, 7.40am-3.30pm, and later on Mondays and Wednesdays.
