Join renowned artist and educator, Joachim Froese, for a workshop designed to develop strategies for analytic thinking and concept development. The workshop will combine theoretical and practical exercises that will provide you with new, structured, hands-on tools and strategies in the classroom when communicating ideas about visual imagery.
In this workshop you will
- learn and practice techniques for analysing visual images;
- develop and apply strategies for giving and receiving critical feedback;
- expand your understanding of composition as a visual language.
The workshop presents an opportunity to develop skills in group exercises with the emphasis on creative inquiry and discussion. It connects to the Queensland Visual Arts Syllabus via its focus on creative inquiry and developing creative and expressive communication skills.
