Molly Thatcher Textiles AS


Molly has experimented with Block Printing techniques on paper, which has then been reconstructed into the base for a possible textile design for her AS Coursework.



Ruby Naybour Fine Art A2


Both of these pieces were created by Ruby using a mixture of printing techniques, and are part of the portfolio of practical work relating to her dissertation. This focused on David Hockney's work, in particular his more recent landscape paintings. The majority of Ruby's images came from the view from her desk in the Study Studio, out over the tennis court to the copper beech 'Climbing Tree'.

Helena Xu Photography GCSE

Helena used her GCSE ‘Still Life’ coursework project to explore light and time in the surroundings most familiar to her to produce these beautifully minimal and simple images. Having studied the origins of the still life and the photographic image Helena used her every own style and vision to arrange and create atmosphere.

Farah Madzar Photography GCSE

For her exam project on the theme of ‘Together and/or Apart’ Farah ultimately made a film exploring quiet and busy places, noise and stillness, movement and atmosphere. The majority of her footage was shot in central London and countryside near her home but, in preparation for her final piece, she made some lovely studies exploring different locations.
