Visual arts is a subject that allows ākonga to express and develop their creativity, while developing their knowledge and skills. Ākonga create their own artworks while learning about the work of other artists and the cultural and social contexts that these artworks reflect. Ākonga can study visual arts to gain qualifications or to explore their interest in art.
In Visual Arts, ākonga will explore and compare their own ethnic and cultural experiences with historical bi-cultural foundations to develop ideas and personal responses within artworks in a range of fields.
No prior learning needed.
