ARTS COUNCIL OF ENGLAND FUNDED COURSE - Arts Award Bronze and Silver at Oasis Academy Media City Uk

Our Achievements So Far

After the success of our four Arts Award Bronze candidates,  they will be receiving their certificates at a special school assembly towards the end of September.  The school is hoping to keep this event as a surprise from them.  The four successful pupils will also receive a small gift to commemorate their achievements.

Last term Olivia, Yoelle, Destiny and Fanni said that they would like to try the Arts Award Silver and we made some headway toward this new goal.

In my last post I wrote about the Art Exhibition that the pupils organised for themselves at Eccles Community Art Gallery, where they displayed work which they had created during that term.  Two of the pupils, Olivia and Yoelle attended the preview and I was privileged to be able to meet Yoelle's family.  I told her father how hard they had all worked during the past year, and that some of the tasks, for example, the wire work, had been really difficult to manage, but they had all created great results.

During the preview the pupils were interviewed about their various paintings and they responded intelligently to questions both from the interviewer and from members of the public, who took an interest in their work.  The pupils were a little shy at first of talking in public, but they soon became used to this new experience and began to enjoy their moments of fame.

New Projects

As the four pupils have now achieved their Arts Award Bronze, I was invited to undertake a new project with some pupils from the new year's Year 9 intake.  As yet, I have no idea how many pupils, I will be finding all this out on Tuesday.

I have some ideas already about what we will do, loosely based on last year's program.

I do know that this year I will be making better use of the Arts Award resources, including Art Box, which is an online tool for storing the candidates' photos of their art and also of written work, which may be accessed by the candidates, the Adviser (me in this case) and the Moderator.  Art Box, it is hoped, will make it easier for the candidates to take a more active role much earlier in the learning process to assemble and collate their own individual portfolios ready for marking and moderation.

Images of Oasis Academy Pupils' Work for Arts Award Bronze, 2015-16



A painting made using various colours of diluted acrylic paint, 
which has been dripped onto the paper, and moved around
to create the different patterns.


Using string soaked in diluted acrylic paint, which was 
placed inside folded paper, and compressed with a       
heavy object, the string was pulled out of the paper,     
                               to create these patterns.                     

                                                                               

After drawing the design, different grades of wire were
used to create the frame and then the filling for these
spectacles.


The above piece was made from five layers of felt which      
were sewn together around the edges, and the design           
applied in tailors' chalk,  Then the outline was stitched and    
the different coloured felt layers were cut away to create      
the image as shown.  This is called reverse applique.            
In the  example above, embroidery was also applied.            
       

 The pupils created their own beads from air-drying clay,
allowed them to dry and then painted the beads in different
colours, sometimes mixing the colours together on the bead.
One or two beads were threaded onto a silver bangle.


The pupils invented their own characters during their    
sessions on action figure illustration and some managed
to invent a story to accompany the illustrations.              

These are some display boards of the wire and applique 
felt work which went on show at Oasis Academy towards
the end of July, 2016.

Final Results - Arts Award Bronze - Out of the Ordinary

The Final Results Are In.

Last week I went down to Norwich to deliver the portfolios of the four remaining Arts Award Bronze candidates.

Getting the portfolios ready had its difficulties as there are numerous checks that need to be done, the various sections need to be in order, so that the Moderator can have a good idea of whether all parts of the Award have been completed satisfactorily.  Then there was the question of the demonstrations the pupils made, which were all on CD but which were in no particular order, as these had been taken from my phone.  I needed to put these in sequence on a USB stick, which also took some time. Eventually, everything came together and the portfolios were ready.

I travelled by coach to London and then from London to Norwich and back to Manchester again. Some might say this was over the top as the journey took approximately 14 hours in all, plus waiting time,  but I felt that, after all their hard work, I couldn't put these portfolios in strangers' hands.

Only a few days later I heard the news by e-mail that ALL FOUR HAVE PASSED!

For about five minutes, I couldn't speak.  I sent a few e-mails out to staff at Oasis Academy and Salford Community Leisure Ltd. who had helped with the organisation of the course and who had supported it all the way through.  I also posted the results on Facebook.

The Grants Team at Arts Council England were delighted to hear that the pupils want to do their Silver Arts Award also, which was mentioned in the previous post.

Here is a message from one of the students, Varni, in her native Hungarian language:

Sziasztok!
Én egy 14 éves lány vagyok, egy évvel ezelött kezdtem el a ‘Bronze Arts Award-ot’ csinálni (13 évesen). Azóta nagyon sokat tanultam a különbözö művészeti technikákról. 

Ebben tartozik a szobrászat amit drotokból készítettünk el, különböző festési technikák, mese figurákat rajzoltunk, textíliákat készítettünk, illetve az ékszerkészítésbe is bele kóstolhattunk, ahol saját karkötőinket készítettük el és mi magunk csináltuk a gyöngyöket hozzá.

Ezen kívül meglátogattunk művészeti gallériákat ahol a kiállításokat néztük meg.  Mindenek felett a tapasztalatam a ‘Bronze Arts Award-bá nagyon jó volt. Sok tapasztalat és egy bizonyítvány után, büszkén folytatom tovább a ‘Silver Arts Award-al’.

Varni

The above message roughly translated:

Hello!


I am a 14-year-old girl and a year ago I started a "Bronze Arts Award" (at age 13). Since then, I have learned a lot of different art techniques.

We made pencil sketches of objects. Then we made wire sculptures. Various painting techniques were tried. I've made some  illustrations of super heroes, and I also worked with  fabrics. Then we made our own beads and jewelry.

In addition, we went to an art gallery, where we looked at paintings.

The experience of the "Bronze Art Award was very good. After learning these techniques, I am proud to continue this certificate" Silver Arts Award ".
