Giulia at BCAC
Giulia Tillack is a student at Carey Baptist Grammar School in Melbourne and is about to embark on a two year program leading to the International Baccalaureate Diploma. She has opted to take Higher Level Visual Art as one of her subject choices. Giulia is a high achiever across the full academic spectrum. However, she has not taken art at all in recent years and decided she might be missing something important. With the enthusiastic support of her parents Giulia came to BCAC with the intention to try to orient herself artistically, to gain technical and creative skills and ideas and boost her self confidence prior to starting the rigorous IB Visual Art course.
She embarked on an 8 days course that began with the study of Rudolf Steiner's color theory while simultaneously exploring line as an expressive element and was joined by her mother, Lila on 3 occasions.
Encouraged by the IB art teacher at her school in Melbourne, Giulia had already focused on the word 'Key' as an object, a theme and a concept to explore. She wasted no time immersing herself in the creative process at BCAC. Her sensitivity to color and eagerness to learn were immediately apparent. In the 8 days at BCAC Giulia explored a range of studio techniques and skills and related theoretical, aesthetic, critical and historical studies. Through a series of exercises Giulia explored abstract, semi abstract and objective realistic approaches to art, leading to a final culminating piece of work in each of these areas.
