Art 30

In Art 30, students continue their in-depth artisti journey through the world of visual communication, with the creation of 2-D and 3-D artworks, using various media and processes, and the examination of the role of art in past and present societies, including a variety of art movements in different art forms. This assists students to further increase their artistic competence, sophistication, and complexity, including the development of their own personal art style, as well as to further develop creative thinking, problem-solving, communication, and interpersonal skills.

Art 30 includes major disciplines of drawing, design, painting, printmaking, architecture, sculpture, and art history. This course also requires students to create a culminating art portfolio and reflective essay, to reflect their progress and success throughout the course.
