Celeste has documented the exploration of materials and techniques to develop a visual language that communicates her ideas.

Unit 3 – Outcome 1 – Criterion 2 –

Celeste continues to explore and experiment with personal visual responses influenced by specific ideas and is starting to consider imagery and compositional arrangements.

Unit 3 – Outcome 1 – Criterion 2 –

Celeste continues to refine the use of materials, techniques and processes to develop an effective visual response. Further research is evident in the selection of reference material.

Unit 3 – Outcome 1 – Criterion 3 –

Document and evaluate the Creative Practice using Interpretive Lenses to develop and refine at least one finished artwork responding to the practice of an artist.

Celeste critically evaluates the development of visual language used to communicate ideas and issues and communicates the decisions made.

Unit 3 – Outcome 1 – Criterion 3 –

Critical evaluation of the development of visual language used to communicate ideas is evident in the annotations. The progressive development of the artwork is documented, and the annotations provide reflection and evaluation as Celeste develops her artwork.

Unit 3 – Outcome 1 – Criterion 3 –

Celeste provides critical evaluation of the development and refinement of the selected materials and techniques to refine her visual language.

Unit 3 – Outcome 1 – Criterion 3 –

While Celeste has applied the Analytical Frameworks outlined in the VCE Art Study design, this page shows how appropriate Interpretive Lenses could be used to evaluate the processes used and refinement of the artwork. In this case the Structural Lens could be used to discuss her use of art elements and principles as well as her chosen technique, and how these achieve their intended visual language and communicate the messages and meaning she wishes to convey.

Unit 3 – Outcome 1 – Criterion 3 –

Celeste continues to refine the use of materials, techniques and processes to develop an effective visual language. She documents her techniques and processes and uses reflective annotation to evaluate the refinement of her artwork.

Unit 3 – Outcome 1 – Criterion 3 –

Documentation, reflection and evaluation to refine the artwork.

The annotation on the right page shows how appropriate Interpretive Lenses could be used to discuss the symbolism used by Celeste to clarify her intention and the meaning the artwork conveys.

Unit 3 – Outcome 1 – Criterion 3 –

Celeste documents the refinement of the artwork, reflects on decisions and evaluates her progress.

Unit 3 – Outcome 1 – Criterion 4 –

Present a critique to explain the use of the Creative Practice to develop and refine one finished artwork.

Celeste acknowledged the value of feedback from her teacher and peers to identify areas of the artwork that required further refinement. The feedback refers to the refinement of visual language discussing proportions and perspective.

Unit 3 – Outcome 1 – Criterion 4 –

The resolved artwork is presented with a reflective statement. Celeste demonstrated how she created a personal response inspired by the image and ideas explored in another artist’s artwork that they researched. The work does not appropriate the imagery but rather, Celeste developed her personal visual language to successfully communicate similar ideas to those associated with the original researched artwork.
