Year 9 Visual Art students have been exploring the concept of the Surreal through photography using light, shadow and reflective objects. These intriguing compositions led to final paintings, which were created using glazing and tonal techniques to show transparency and layers and to develop their painting skills. Their final concept was highlighted in their titles which included Lost Love, Checkmate, Dichotomous Dinner and Lumiere.

Students were inspired by the work of Czech Artist Jeromir Funke and his use of light and the surreal in his constructed photographic images.
