Traces: Activating the Art Curriculum

From 10 December – 18 January 2019 

The National Gallery is pleased to present new works by Kerry Ann Brown, Kerwin Ebanks, Sarah McDougall, Claire Musser, Lorna Reid, and June South-Robinson, art educators who teach within the art departments of public high schools across Grand Cayman. Representing John Gray High School, Clifton Hunter High School and the Cayman Islands Further Education College, they have come together in dialogue around the National Art Curriculum, to illustrate how lesson plans are transformed into inspiring art projects.

The showcase demonstrates the various concepts and techniques that are introduced to students through the art curriculum, demonstrated here in their own work, and how they have followed instructions set for their students to expand their own personal portfolios.  In keeping with the wide scope of the curriculum, it includes a diverse range of art media and materials such as painting, sculpture, photography, video, and more.
