Students in Year 9 have been working on an Art project inspired by the imaginative ideas of Surrealism and the work of Rene Magritte, Salvador Dali, Julian Beaver and video illusionist Zach King. They explored ways of using perspective creatively to create a piece of work based on the combination of aspects of a landscape and room. Many students really enjoyed developing additional themes to their work.
