Seven matric art pupils at Sacred Heart College entered the Independent Schools’ Association of South Africa (Isasa) Matric Art Exhibition on September 25.
The exhibition presented several innovative works of art from talented individuals eager to pursue a career in the arts.
It featured the matriculants’ artworks from six Isasa schools in Gauteng.
Khensani Mahlabane, Angela Kow and Palesa Ngoasheng from Sacred Heart College received merit awards. Thorsten Reisinger came third overall. He entered an evocative animation film based on a story he penned of a man who loses his family and is touched with reality.
“It is a wonderful validation for our pupils to get such a positive response to their art from the judges, who are professionals in the art world,” said Ms Debbie le Roux, the head of the cultural co-curricular department and the subject head for visual arts at Sacred Heart College.
