Use inquiry to create a work of art inspired by the work of Saskatchewan artists.
Indicators for this outcome
(a) Create an art work based on individual or collaborative inquiry, including for example:
  • generating questions for inquiry about the work of Saskatchewan artists (e.g., How do art works reflect a sense of place?)
  • comparing and contrasting the work of urban and rural Saskatchewan artists
  • researching and viewing works of recognized Saskatchewan artists
  • experimenting with techniques and media used by Saskatchewan artists.
(b) Engage with Elders, Knowledge Keepers, and/or Indigenous artists to examine traditional and contemporary visual art practices.
(c) Engage with Indigenous and non-Indigenous artists to discuss sources of inspiration and art practices and apply new knowledge to own work.
(d) Examine respectful ways of using sources of inspiration including issues of appropriation (e.g., What are the dynamics that make “borrowing” ideas appropriate or not?).
