In this unit of work students were given the challenge of responding to the theme of 'Endangered'. This unit of work focused on developing student's painting, drawing and relief printmaking techniques.
Students chose one of the UN sustainable development goals to focus their research and raise awareness of these issues. Students researched, designed and created original artwork to highlight issues contributing to the extinction of animal species. Issues students chose to address were wide ranging including climate change, poaching, illegal animal trade, overfishing, pollution and invasive species.
Students used either mixed-media drawing and painting processes or Lino relief printmaking techniques to produce their final ' Endangered' pieces.
