Ipswich Grammar School‘s annual art exhibition, Studio 161, will be opening its doors this Friday, October 4th, showcasing the incredible artistic talents of students from prep through to year 12. The exhibition, named after the school’s 161st year of operation, will feature a wide range of works from the school’s budding artists, providing an opportunity for students to display their creativity and artistic vision.
Among the participants are Year 12 students Joe and Luke, who are particularly excited about sharing their work with the public. Joe has created a thought-provoking print series that explores emotions through different body language expressions. His self-portraits, which compare feelings of happiness and sadness, are designed to provoke thought about mental health and personal growth.
Luke, on the other hand, has developed an immersive art installation focusing on respect and internal reflections. His interactive piece allows viewers to walk through a space and observe hidden messages, only visible under specific lighting, offering insight into the hidden thoughts and feelings individuals may carry.
The exhibition promises a diverse display of artwork from all ages, highlighting the school’s commitment to fostering creativity from a young age. “Even the prep students’ artworks are impressive. It’s amazing to see such talent from the youngest to the oldest,” Luke remarked.
The exhibition will run from October 4th to the 10th, with the opening night taking place this Friday from 4:30 pm to 6:30 pm at Ipswich Grammar School’s Level 1, Ladley Centre in the main arts building. With such a wide range of artistic expression on display, the school invites the community to attend and celebrate the next generation of artists.
