ISR Grade 12 IB Visual Arts Exhibition Vernissage 2026

Last Thursday, our annual ISR Grade 12 IB Visual Arts Exhibition Vernissage took place, showcasing the creativity and dedication of our talented students Madison, Emily, Annica, Leon, Jason, and Larui. Over the past five terms, each student developed and refined a carefully curated body of work that expresses their artistic themes and intentions.

Each student explored a unique concept: Madison investigated how perspectives can be manipulated, linking visual illusion with global issues such as climate change. Emily created an interactive, detective-inspired exhibition that invites viewers to actively engage and uncover meaning. Annica’s work, Phoenix, explored light and darkness as symbols of resilience and transformation. Leon focused on storytelling through layers, depth, and composition, showing how subtle elements shape perception. Jason addressed stress in high school life, using cartoons to present serious topics with humor. Larui’s exhibition reflected a personal journey of identity and self-exploration, encouraging viewers to consider the question, “Who are you?” As part of their final IB Art experience, students also curated their exhibition spaces, carefully considering display, lighting, and the overall viewer experience.

Ms. Henebry, Head of the Art Department, shared her pride in the students’ commitment and growth. During the event, our students presented their work, guiding visitors through their exhibitions and reflecting on their artistic journeys.

We are very proud of our IB Art students for their hard work and creativity. Their exhibition once again demonstrated that at ISR, learning goes beyond the classroom. We wish them all the best in their upcoming IB examinations and continued success in their future academic and career paths!
