Best Artworks from High School

This etching of my school shoe portrays one of my memorable objects during high school.
Through etching, I wanted to emphasise the weary lines of a worn out school shoe through the use of cross-hatching techniques. In addition, through printmaking I was able to contrast the black-and-white colours of the ink and the hahnemuhle paper. The use of minimal colours reflects the characteristics of an ordinary school shoe - simple and humble.




I produced this installation during high school as part of an environmental art. Using everyday objects, I made small, lifeless cotton buds into a monumetal-like structure that blended well with the natural environment. In particular, I took this photograph in a way that made the ordinary cotton buds seem larger than life through a close-up shot.




This is one of the artworks of my 7 piece HSC collection of works. This oil painting portrays our inevitable relationship with nature. Similar to naturally reading the newspaper everyday, we cannot avoid nature being an integral part of our lives. In this painting, I was inspired by the Pointillism techniques of using small, colourful dots to create an optical art. Furthermore, using myself as the model, and incorporating my home, as well as the newspaper, I made the subject matter more personal for me.
