OLMCBI 209

A huge congratulations to our talented and courageous students and their dedicated teachers for another successful OLMC Art Show and the opening of the Caldow Collection! We are immensely proud of the remarkable works created this year and the creative risks taken by our students in showcasing their art.

The Art Show also wouldn't have been the same without the ‘Mercy’ hospitality provided by our Year 10 Food Production and Design students and staff. Food Assistants Marisa Brazzale and Janine Kerr played crucial roles in ensuring our guests were well-fed and cared for throughout the event.

The art on display represents just one aspect of the production process that all students engage in while creating. The design thinking framework plays a role in making students’ creative development visible. During the investigating and generating stages of this process, Design, Art, and Technology students consider how their work will resonate with specific audiences, meet client needs, and effectively communicate ideas and aesthetic qualities. They also reflect on the environmental, economic, and social impacts of their creations, which empowers them to articulate the intentions and processes behind their art.

Presenting an Art Show requires teamwork and significant effort. Our Design, Art, and Technology (DAT) technician, Sophie Watt, has been a vital addition to the team. Her curatorial skills ensured that the students' works were showcased beautifully and creatively.

Congratulations to all students whose work was exhibited, and special recognition to our Subject Winners for 2024!
