National Gallery of Victoria – Presentation at AEV Rethinking the Familiar Conference

Spoke at the AEV Conference Rethinking the Familiar in a session called Rethinking the Familiar – Visual Diaries.

Coming after the release of the Visual Diary Guide, this session had a lot more focus on the role of the Visual Diary in the creative process. Already an established tool in schools, the Visual Diary could now become a key tool to teach creativity and not just art techniques, essentially going back to its original promise. But how to do this in an era where ticking the curriculum boxes are the key performance criteria.
