Inside King's-Edgehill School
Please join us for our Annual IB Art Exhibition Opening Night Reception on Thursday, April 2, 2020. Each week until our big day, I will feature select IB Art students and their work so you can enjoy a sneak peak of their favourite pieces.
Madison "Maddy" Magee has attended KES for two years and is from Toronto, Ontario.
I have chosen this sculpture as my favourite because it helped me decide the theme for my work. Plus, it was the first time that I had worked on a clay sculpture. My theme of the sculpture is the objectivity of women's bodies. I have carried this theme throughout my IB artwork using different media.
Future plans: I plan to study Political Science at Carlton University.
Victor Moreno Del Valle has attended KES for two years and is from Madrid, Spain.I have chosen this chalk pastel drawing as one of my favourites because I enjoy drawing the human anatomy and I also like working with chalk pastels. I wanted to do this drawing in black and white to emphasis the tonal quality and the form of the torso using high contrast lights.
Future Plans: I plan to study Business at Dalhousie University.
Madison “Madi” Taijaard has attended KES for six year (a lifer) and is from Fall River, Nova Scotia.I have chosen this painting because of the technique that I used, and it is the painting that I am most proud. I feel the message is very positive of being wild and free. This was the first time that I experimented with the palette knife which was used for the texture. I also had planned to use monochromatic colours to emphasize the figure and the movement.
Future plans: I plan to study for a Bachelor of Arts, Science and Health at Saint Francis University.
