Zoe Chen Photography LT/Yr9

Zoe, who is doing photography in her own time in preparation for her GCSE course that will start next year, has made some beautifully still and atmospheric images during her recent travels. These images are a great example of her talents and were made during her visit to Mount Fuji in Japan.

Textiles

Taking their fingerprints as inspiration, the LTs (Yr 9) have drawn details and then worked their drawings into a design. These designs were then dry-point printed onto fabric using multiple prints and colours.  

     

  

    

Eliza Innes Ker Photography A2

For her 'Transformations' project Eliza has been exploring visual possibilities using layering and double exposure. Starting with delicate and saturated images of natural forms she has produced these beautiful studies.

Immy Goodman Fine Art AS

Immy is currently working on the 'Texture' element of her AS coursework and has produced these three highly successful pencil studies from the still life, reflecting the idea of 'Close, Close, Closest'.

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 Fine Art GCSE

These charming and sensitive oil pastel works are part of Helena's portfolio of GCSE Coursework, for which she was awarded an A*. They are all based on studies of her young nephew.

Izzy Scott Photography GCSE

For her GCSE Portraiture project Izzy produced a very strong series of images, inspired by Nick Waplington's 'Other Edens', where she explored the figure within the landscape.

Alex Boardman Photography GCSE

Alex made the most of a number of trips to America and Europe to produce a very strong and varied 'Landscape & Architecture' project as part of her GCSE Coursework. With a keen eye for form and composition, her skills are exemplified in these images. 

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.

Alex Boardman Photography GCSE

For her GCSE ‘Portraiture’Coursework project Alex considered investigating what clothes, artefacts and possessions say about their owner’s character and personality. Her clear appreciation of colour, light and atmosphere helped her produce some very individual imagery.   

Phoebe Sek Photography GCSE

Phoebe produced a series of well defined and carefully observed studies of urban structure and landscaping, patterns and geometry, for her GCSE ‘Landscape & Architecture’ Coursework project. Here are a few of her stronger works.
