Living Mercy - Christian Art

In this unit students will explore how religion and religious ideas are presented in art, architecture, music, dance, drama, literature or film. The theological perspective conveyed in various art works will be examined in the light of associated historical and societal perspectives. In this unit students will be exposed to the ways that the arts present religious ideas, express religious sentiment, engage people in prayer, and challenge religious ideas. 

This subject has a practical component where students are required to produce a Christian artwork. 

All students are required to undertake a Living Mercy class (excluding those studying VCE Religion & Society Units 3 & 4). Living Mercy runs for Semester One only.
