High school artists showcase their work

South Side embraces student creativity at visual arts exhibition

Posted

Fifteen different art students from Rockville Centre selected eight of their best works to put out on display for the International Baccalaureate visual arts exhibition at South Side High School on March 29.

The exhibition was the culmination of two years worth of work. Each of these talented artists expressed themselves through a wide array of different mediums, including watercolors, acrylic paintings, portraits, photography, sculpture, and more.

Next to each selected work, was a description of the individual piece, the students’ curatorial rationale, an explanation of how the works are arranged, and what each artist hopes to convey to their audience.

“Tremendous artistic talents on display at the IB visual arts exhibition,” South Side High School Principal Patrick Walsh said via Twitter. “I’m so impressed by our students and their artwork.”
