Excursion Package exploring Teo Treloar: A Void A Maze
Dive into the world of local contemporary artist Teo Treloar and his meticulous drawing practice. Treloar explores themes of masculinity and melancholia. His drawings are often made in series, allowing him to expand and animate a single image through various permutations that relate to the way we process thoughts in the mind.
The excursion will begin with a tour where students will engage with the artworks in Teo Treloar: A Void A Maze. The tour will be followed by a drawing workshop where students will create pencil drawings, inspired by the concept of a maze. Explore how lines twist and turn, shapes emerge, and shading brings depth to their composition.
Worksheet
A worksheet will be provided for each student to complete during their guided tour, you can preview the worksheet by downloading below.
