RIVERINA VISUAL ARTS CAMP 2016
This booklet has been compiled to help you prepare for the 2016 VISUAL ARTS CAMP at the Riverina Institute of TAFE NSW, Wagga Campus.
This camp is for selected High School students from years 8-11 across the Riverina region. It has been organised as a joint venture between the NSW Department of Education and Communities and the Riverina Institute of TAFE NSW, Wagga Campus.
The Visual Arts Camp will offer you the opportunity to spend 3 full days concentrating on developing your skills, understanding and approach to art making. You will be undertaking specially devised workshops with tertiary lecturers in professional studio spaces and facilities. You will also have the opportunity to work with students from across the Wagga Wagga, Cootamundra, Albury, Griffith and Deniliquin networks who are also serious about making art. This will be an exciting, challenging and very rewarding experience that will strengthen your art making through focused projects, helping you further understand how artworks are imagined, shaped and extended by research.
You will have the opportunity to work on projects in Jewellery / Sculpture, Printmaking, Drawing, Painting, Photoshop and 2D Animation.
The secret to the success of your camp is: Get involved, learn all you can and make new friends. ENJOY….
