Questions to guide

Self Critique

Reflection on the artmaking process on “Who am I?”
i) What qualities of the work make you feel it is a success or failure?
ii) Out of 10 marks, how many marks will you award yourself?
iii) If given a chance to start all over again, what would you have done
differently?

Peer Critique (critique on your peer's work posted below you)

i) Describe what you see,

using elements of art (line, shape, form, texture and so forth) as your guide, describe what your peer drawn, what is the whole image about.

eg - XXX's work drew an stylization of herself. She melted herself in the image and she drew different shapes in her objects making it unique.

ii) Analyse how the work is being presented,

using principles of design (emphasis, repetition, rhythm, depth and so forth), analyse what is the relationship of the subject matter and the background.

eg- XXX did some repetition in her drawing. She repeated a flower which is representative of her culture. There is some rhythm in how she present her face by displacing them in a up-down layout. It would be good if she present some depth in her drawing like drawing some flowers from big to small.

iii) Interpretate how the work make you feel and think,

-Describe the expressive qualities you find in the work. What expressive language would you use to describe the qualities (i.e., tragic, ugly, funny)?
-Does the work remind you of other things you have experienced (i.e., analogy or metaphor)?
-How does the work relate to other ideas or events in the world and/or in your other studies?

eg. XXX's drawing seem sad as she is melting away. The flower are blooming and yet she is melting away. This word seem to create a mix feeling of sadness and happiness. Like life, there's always sadness and happiness.

iv) Evaluate if this work is a success or a failure.

-What qualities of the work make you feel it is a success or failure?
-Compare it with similar works that you think are good or bad.
-How original is the work? Why do you feel this work is original or not original?

eg.. it's a success. I like her work as it evoke a mixed feeling in me. I like the rhythmetic feel of the art piece. and this piece of work is orginal. I never see this work before.
