AS Enrichment Day

Former Ashton Sixth Form student Samuel Stewart visited us today to show our AS students the principles of character design.

The Art Department now offer an Art foundation Course which sits between A' Levels and Degree Courses. This week our Foundation Students have been working collaboratively on a group project. The outcome was this intriguing and multifaceted installation.

This artwork was based on Cornelia Parker's recent exhibition at the Whitworth Art Gallery and draws inspiration from art movements such as arte povera and conceptualism.

Our Art Foundation students working on a collaborative sculptural installation.

Three of our Fine Art students were selected to produce large scale artwork for display in the colleges newly built reception. Here are some short films of them working their magic.
