yeh, like getting featured on the cover of the ugly uac guides which noone appreciates anyways.
When you put it that way i wish it really was a picture of a testicle... that'd be so good lol

I reckon if u get into art express tho... u can SELL your work to some hippie!

yeh, I saw that work at the agnsw, putting it on the uac guide completely degraded its value. Same as with the eyes artwork the year before..

Did you see the cover of the art express catalougue with all the birds in a grid-like cage? yeh, that was done by some guy from my school.. =] its so mad in real life!

I honestly have no concept, I made my work... the best possible technical things i could make at the time...
I then made sure that they seemed fairly abiguous.. however could also hold great meaning, to find out how the 'board of studies' determines works with good concepts I read all the information i could on em... it turns out if you can show a similiar theme thoughout ur body of work, some signs/symbols, maybe a little text you'll be considered to have strong conceptual strength...

So I made all my works pretty much with the same colour scheme, I put little signs and such.... I used the layout of a famous photographer, i gave them ambiguous titles.. .and used some lyrics from bands that i doubt the makers know underneath these titles to help suggest some deeper meaning...

Seems i tricked them! :D

If i get into art express i'll be the first from my loser school... however being a loser school, i fear i may not make it.
u rarely see any james ruse artworks in there.

dw, ur featured in the standards packages.. they'd most probably want to feature your artwork in art express too.. oh yeh, by band 6, did you mean that they put u in the exemplar category or the band 5/6 one?

Nope, I go to Penrith high.

7 people out of 14 got pre-selected last year from my school, and 3 made it in.
we always get people in art express every year.
