Starting line for student art<br />
By SHELLEY TOPP<br />
Rangiora High School students have<br />
overcome the challenges of Omicron to<br />
complete an impressive body of work for<br />
their exhibition Starting Line.<br />
The students, aged from 17 to 18 years,<br />
had just one term to complete their work<br />
for the exhibition, which includes<br />
painting, photography and design. It<br />
opened in the Chamber Gallery in the<br />
Rangiora Library, last Sunday afternoon.<br />
Rangiora High School’s head of<br />
learning and creative arts and design,<br />
and photography teacher, Claire<br />
Aldhamland, says the exhibition<br />
provided an opportunity for the students<br />
to create work that is purposeful, that<br />
they can share with viewers in arealworld<br />
context.<br />
‘‘This is very difficult in these strange<br />
times so we relish the connection we gain<br />
with an audience and the feedback from<br />
the work,’’ she says.<br />
‘‘This can be daunting for an artist but<br />
there is safety in numbers.’’<br />
Line was chosen as the exhibition's<br />
overarching theme because it is an<br />
element that is present in every form of<br />
artistic discipline and usually the<br />
starting point for any artwork.<br />
Each student has interpreted the<br />
concept of line from their own unique<br />
viewpoint and moment in time.<br />
‘‘They are all inspired and informed by<br />
the work of artist models of their own<br />
choosing,’’ Claire said.<br />
‘‘Although we all have the same<br />
starting point, each student will take<br />
their work in apersonal direction and<br />
the journey may continue into other<br />
work. We are excited to share this art<br />
with the local community and hope this<br />
will become aregular celebration of<br />
student success.’’<br />
The exhibition closes on <strong>April</strong> 28.<br />
