Advanced Higher Art & Design – Contemporary Art Installations

During the February break, three of our talented artists Ragda Elhag, Becca Tarrant and Sarah Broadhurst took a day out of their holiday and study time to create some site specific installation art at Old St. Paul’s Church in the City Centre. The workshop was led by contemporary artist, Juliana Capes and organised by the Fruitmarket Gallery. The students spent time in the gallery viewing the exhibition before making their own large scale installations using ‘unexpected media’, paper and found objects in and around the church. This was an interesting ‘Space Exploration’ experience helped develop confidence and creativity and was particularly useful for those intending to study Art & Design at university level.
