Year 7 Visual Art
Students analyse visual conventions and materials in artworks, evaluating cross-cultural ideas. They create and reflect on their work, exploring the theme of metamorphosis by drawing realistic animals before morphing them together to create using clay. They carve lino for printmaking and analyse art by Torres Strait Islander artist Billy Missi.
