Artist of the moment – Alex in Middle Fifth

Posted: 14th June 2024

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 this week is Alex in Middle Fifth. She is working on the theme of ‘Identity’ and is interested in nostalgia and childhood memories in particular. She has been experimenting on materials which evoke these feelings, such as denim and items of clothing from her own childhood. This cyanotype on denim has been particularly effective and we look forward to seeing how this project will culminate in a final outcome towards the end of this term. Well done Alex.
