Year 8 – Visual Arts using Sculptura
Working with clay in visual arts takes continued and consistent practice to finalise an artwork which matches the image in a student’s imagination. Utilising the options and opportunities the iPad presents, Year 8 students, working with direction from Visual Arts teacher, Scott Bycroft, were given the opportunity to practice and create their sculpting skills through the app Sculptura; giving endless opportunities for change and redesign. Student learning is redefined in approaching their inquiry through research communicated through video and audio in their Numbers documentation and presented their final sculpture through the medium of 3D printing.
