ACTIVITY OUTLINE:
Students continue to learn about safe practices in the arts and in their interactions with other artists. Their understanding of the role of the artist and the audience builds on their experience. As an audience, students focus their attention on the artwork and respond to it. They consider why and how audiences respond to artworks.
Visual Arts | Year 3 – Year 4
- Explore ideas and artworks from different cultures and times, including artwork by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists, to use as inspiration for their own representations
