This interactive lecture is delivered live and online
It is suitable for Year 12 and Year 13 students either as an introduction to a new topic or a refresher for one already studied.
The session will be hosted by our partner, Channel Talent, and students can attend as individuals (from home or from school) or as a group (from a classroom).
Among the many skills that humans evolved to design their environments, art-making is among the oldest, existing far before evidence of written communication. However, we are still in the early stages of understanding how and why individuals create and respond so powerfully to works of art.
In this webinar we will explore how people become art experts, looking at the role of practice and talent. We will also discuss the psychological value of art creation and appreciation, and its link to mental health.
By the end of the lecture you should understand a bit more about the psychological role of visual art and its link to issues in mental health and human development.
