In Levels 7 and 8, students make and respond to visual artworks. They design and create visual expressions of selected themes and concepts through a variety of visual arts forms and styles. Students develop an informed opinion about artworks based on their research of current and past artists. They examine their own culture and develop a deeper understanding of their practices as an artist.
Students build on their awareness of how and why artists, craftspeople and designers realise their ideas through different visual expressions. They extend their thinking and use of perceptual and conceptual skills and continue to use and apply appropriate visual language and visual conventions with increasing complexity.
Students extend their understanding of safe visual arts practices and choose to use sustainable materials, techniques and technologies.
By the end of Level 8, students identify, analyse and evaluate how other artists use materials, techniques, technologies, processes and visual conventions to express ideas and convey meaning.
Students plan and make their art works in response to exploration of techniques, technologies and processes used in the work of other artists. They demonstrate the use of materials, techniques, processes, visual conventions and technologies to express ideas and convey meaning in their artworks.
Students identify and describe artworks and exhibitions from different cultures, times and places and how ideas are interpreted by audiences.
