Presentation of a message to an audience and reflection of the visual art elements and materials used in artwork (ACAVAM112)
Audience: (Individuals or groups of people who experience the arts in a range of settings and contexts (formal, informal, virtual or interactive) through intellectual, emotional and social engagement.)
Visual Art Elements:
- colour: light, as seen through the spectrum which is composed of 6 basic colours; red, orange yellow, green, blue, violet. Terms to classify colour are hue (the name of a colour) intensity (the brightness of a colour) and chroma (purity of a colour)
- form: structure of the work, giving it a distinctive character defined by light and shadow and is therefore, 3D.
- shape: when lines close on themselves, they form shapes. A shape is 2D, having height and width. Shapes are either geometric or organic. A positive shape on a flat surface automatically creates a negative shape in the surrounding space
- space: 2D, 3D and 4D space refers to the area around, within, or between parts of an artwork or action. There is both positive and negative space
- texture: describes how the real surface quality of matter looks or feels to the touch. Implied texture is created by replicating a visual sensation using media such as pencil, charcoal or paint - tone: lightness or darkness of a colour. It is achieved by adding black to a colour, or mixing quantities of the three primary colours together. Tone can be utilised to imply form, texture or weight.

Totem Artwork
In Aboriginal culture, many clans (groups) had totem animals that were assigned to people as a spiritual connection. In some groups, the person's totem animal was assigned by the elders according to where the mother was when they first felt the baby kick in their stomach. For example, they were at the beach when they first felt kicks, so they may choose a ocean animal such as a fish or a dolphin. Complete an artwork in a medium (using materials e.g. iPad, paint, colours, texts etc) of an animal that has a connection to you in an Aboriginal Artwork style. You may choose an animal that you are connected to, or ask a family member if they remember where they were when they first felt a kick before you were born. Here are some professional examples.
