Photography
Curriculum Intent Statement |
---|
The Photography department exposes students to a wide range of imagery produced by makers, artists, commercial photographers and talented amateurs, to inspire them to produce their own photographic and lens-based work. Students are taught to decode visual symbolism from a range of art historical sources, including fine art, technical, scientific, illustrative and advertising photographs. Through this, students learn to understand and appreciate the role photography plays in our lives, both historically and in current times. They learn how photography has transformed human communications and this develops into an ability to express their own ideas and concepts with clarity and confidence, enabling them to enhance their communication through the use of a fluent visual language. Exposure to this wide range of sources also develops them into independent visual thinkers who have a greater understanding of the world around them and how to navigate it, both at RBA and beyond. |
