Five local schools submitted works of some of their final year VCE art students. Participating were Benalla Secondary Collage, Euroa Secondary College, FCJ Benalla, Galen College - Wangaratta and Mansfield Secondary College. In their final year, students spend two terms researching an art project that they developed into an art work in their final term.
The art diaries, which are also on display are worth looking at as they capture the experimentation and detailed research leading up to the final production of a work. Some of the small experimental drawings and painting in the diaries are fine work.
The exhibition successfully reveals the interests and emotions of the students as they transition towards adulthood. Personal experiences, environmental issues and social commentary formed the basis for some of the student work.
The works of the photographers were particularly fine exploring portraits, landscape and experimental techniques that utilize digital photography and computer processing of images.
Well done to all the exhibitors! Well worth a visit before it finishes on 9th December.
