    developing ideas through investigations informed by contextual and other sources, demonstratinganalytical and cultural understanding

    refining ideas through experimenting and selecting appropriate resources, media, materials,techniques ;;ind processes

    recording ideas, observations and insights relevant to your intentions in visual and/or other forms

    presenting a personal, informed and meaningful response demonstrating analytical and cr' iti alunderstanding, realising intentions and, where appropriate, making connections between visual,

    written, oral or other elements.

    Choose one of the following starting points and produce a personal response.

    Edges can be used to outline shapes, to separate colours and textures and to define forms.

    Halima Cassell makes ceramic vessels with clearly defined edges inspired by elements in

    African art and Islamic architecture. Sculptor Richard Deacon exploits the qualities of edges

    in his twisting abstract constructions. Fashion and textiles designer Emma Lundgren creates

    colourfully edged, multi-layered fashion garments.

    Investigate relevant sources and create your own work in response to:

    EITHER (a) on the edge

    OR (b) edge to edge.

    5 Arrangements

    1 Openings Many artists, craftspeople and designers create specific effects through the arrangement of line, shape, form, colour and texture. Peter Clark recycles and arranges paper and textiles

    Many artists, craftspeople and designers are fascinated by openings and the viewpoints these

    provide. Charles Hardaker and Edward Hopper have made paintings looking into and out

    from rooms. Henk Van Rensbergen takes photographs peering through openings into bleak,

    deserted spaces. Andy Goldsworthy created openings in many of his site-specific sculptures

    and Barbara Hepworth created pierced, organic forms.

    Study appropriate sources and produce your own work inspired by Openings.

    into collaged garments and three-dimensional creatures. Tony Cragg's early installations

    incorporated discarded household materials arranged by colour. Ben Gest arranges and

    records interior domestic scenes in his photographs. Giorgio Morandi painted still-life

    arrangements of simple objects such as vases, bottles and bowls.

    Research appropriate sources and create your own work in response to one of the following:

    (a) still life

    2 Disguise

    (b) domestic scene

    (c) assemblage.

    Masks, elaborate make-up and costume are used in traditional Japanese Kabuki theatre

    and by the Kathakali dancers of India to transform and disguise a performer's appearance,

    character and gender. Fashion designer Guo Pei creates fantastic sculptural costumes that

    dramatically change the appearance and identity of the wearer. Cavan Huang arranges and

    layers letterforms to disguise the message of the text.

    Research appropriate sources and create your own work in response to Disguise.

    3 Atmospheres

    Colour, light, shape, sound and texture are often combined to interpret or create atmospheres.

    Claude Monet and JMW Turner made work in response to specific atmospheric conditions.

    Mark Rothko created abstract paintings with a defined atmosphere or mood. Brian Eno has

    created atmospheric soundscapes for art installation works. Dancer and choreographer

    Merce Cunningham collaborated with mixed-media artist Daniel Arsham who created

    dramatically lit, atmospheric, sculptural stage sets.

    Research appropriate sources and create your own work in response to Atmospheres.

    6 Texture

    The appearance and tactile nature of surfaces sometimes inspires artists, designers and

    craftspeople. Frank Auerbach develops urban landscapes and portraits in dense layers of

    paint, creating textured surfaces. The work of ceramicist Anne Goldman is inspired by the

    surfaces of rocks in the desert canyons of California. Amarjeet Nandhra combines print, mixed

    media and stitch as she explores the textures seen in deteriQrating surfaces. Clay Ketter has

    used painting, mixed media and photography to explore textured surfaces.

    Investigate appropriate sources and produce your own work in response to Texture.

    7 Fragments

    .Y ou should make connections with appropriate sources when developing your personal

    response to one of the following suggestions.

    (a) Develop your own interpretation of the starting point Fragments.

    a silhouette.

    Laura Letinsky uses the edges of objects such as tables and shelves and the line where one

    colour meets another as important features of the composition in her still-life photographs.

    Jed Devine and Jan Groover use similar compositional devices in their work. Lines formed

    by the edges of parts of.buildings, shadows and silhouettes are an important part of the

    composition in the photographs and photograms of Laszlo Moholy-Nagy.

    of the composition.

    2 Disguise

    Inge Moratb collaborated with the artist Saul Steinberg to produce a series of photographs

    in a book called 'Masquerade'. These were based on people wearing masks which had
