Year 12 BTEC trip to Natural History museum and V&A

 
 
Today we went to the Natural History Museum to see the Gunter von Hagens' 'Animal Inside Out' show exploring the exhibits for BTEC work. We were looking at the dissected and beautiful anatomies of animals for our upcoming project 'Flesh.' We then went over the road to the V&A  museum as a contrast for the theme, to study the idealised and writhing figurative sculptures. Students created wonderful tonal and linear drawings in a variety of materials, alongside taking detailed photos. This will help them think about different approaches to the project, from a core skills perspective.
