Students will create either an artwork or a marketing product, drawing inspiration from local artist Sebastian Moody’s body of work.
Students are first invited to work individually to engage their imagination and memories in a search for inspiration. In groups, they are then challenged to create, reflect on, and share media artworks that respond to a brief. Finally, students analyse how their works convey meaning and impact audiences.
Workshop (1 hour)
The Brisbane City Vibes workshop invites students to be inspired by Sebastian’s artwork Sunshine Psychology (2021), exhibited as part of the City in the Sun exhibition in 2021. Ultimately, they are offered the opportunity to develop new insights into the roles of emotion and aesthetics in both art making and marketing.
There is the option for the workshop to include a live presentation by the artist, depending on availability.
City in the Sun was supported by the Queensland Government through Arts Queensland.
