Teacher in Charge: Ms H. Kim.

This innovative programme builds on the skills learnt in 10ART and 10ARD and is designed to extend a student's understanding of art-making techniques and creative processes. Students will produce work using tactile art-making methods and there will also be opportunity for using digital methods.

Students will develop artistic responses to a broad theme and will learn to generate, develop and clarify their ideas using a variety of art-making methods. The focus of this year is on developing conceptual ideas and practical skills for future Art subject specialisation.
