Visual Arts mini concept project “The power of an image-the threats are coming fast and furious”

This mini concept project is aimed to raise awareness of coral reefs dying.

It includes: the task description with the Statement of inquiry, Key Concepts, Related concepts, Global Context, ATL skills and student’s e-portfolio with each task outlined, covering Criteria A, B and C. Criterion D can be added, as necessary.

This project can also be used in Design Technology, adapted accordingly. The students explore 2 points perspective (Isometric projection), orthographic and digital representations.

As a final outcome, the students will create a visual 2D or 3D message that would help to preserve the coral reefs and inform people of the danger, making people/the audience to think of their own actions that have the consequences. The final 2D and 3D artwork could be a coral reef made from recycled and processed waste material, which can be set on the bottom of the sea to function as the basis for a new natural coral reef to form and housing for sea creatures.
