The art department regularly recognises the achievements of individual pupils in the senior school through the award of the title, ‘Artist of the Moment’. Entries cover a wide range of disciplines, including drawing, painting, photography, printmaking, sculpture, installation and mixed media celebrating the diverse talents of pupils in our co-educational day school.
Our artist of the moment is Elisabeth from Lower Fifth. She started by taking a series of photographs based on the broad theme of Architecture. She selected an image of a church to realise as a Tetra Pak print. This involves cutting the Tetra Pak open and etching the image into the foil layer inside the pack and then inking it up as a dry point. This is a very effective method of printmaking and gives the discarded Tetra Pak a new lease of life. Well done Elisabeth.
