'Diary of a Madman': Year 12 Art Installation

Posted on 4:03 PM by Unknown
by Alison Dyer




Every year the Year 12 A Level group undertake a site specific installation project as part of their coursework. This year their work has been inspired by Nikolai Gogol's farcical short story 'Diary of a Madman', which records the gradual descent of the protagonist, Poprishchin, into insanity.

The exhibition will be on display in the Art department during the Year 11 Sixth Form Subject Forum on Monday, 28th January, 6.30 - 8.00pm. All are welcome.




See a video of the artists at work preparing the installation:
