After two years of ups and downs related to the pandemic, this year’s theme was ‘Resilience’, representing the resilience the students have developed in overcoming challenges and adapting to changing circumstances. There is no doubt these students have been tested throughout these times, but they have become stronger and more resilient as a result. This is even demonstrated through their artwork, whether it be through the use of digital mediums or various emotions and themes related to online learning. There were a variety of interesting themes and concepts that were built upon from their personal and cultural experiences which shines through each piece of artwork.

This year, there were nine students who showcased their artwork in a variety of art-making forms which they have carefully selected as final pieces for the exhibition.

The IB Year 1 and Year 2 students visited the Bangkok Art and Culture Centre Foundation that hosted the exhibition, entitled: “SPECTROSYNTHESIS II – Exposure of Tolerance: LGBTQ in Southeast Asia”. The nature of the exhibition, with its theme of gender diversity whether in terms of cultural, or ethnic diversity, has opened the minds of our students to understand the issues and change their perspective of this culturally gender tolerant country.

Bangkok Art & Culture Center

The highlights of the visit are for the students to develop their curatorial skills in terms of exhibition ideas, consider methods of display (crucial for exhibition ideas), understand how meaning is communicated in the artworks and become aware of the artist- viewer relationships.

The students had been very positive about what they observed and were keen on writing reflections and recording documentations for visual art journals for future reference. Many of them were able to gain inspiration for potential artwork or future exhibitions as well.
