St Ursula’s College on Exhibition
Students from St Ursula’s College had their Visual Arts artworks exhibited as part of two Sydney Catholic Schools Arts HQ events this term.
We are thrilled to announce that six talented students from the 2024 HSC cohort were selected to showcase their exceptional HSC Bodies of Work artwork in the prestigious Sydney Catholic Schools HSC Visual Arts Showcase at Juniper Hall, Paddington. This annual event provides a platform to celebrate the remarkable creativity and dedication of young artists across Sydney Catholic Schools.
The students selected for inclusion included Lilyan Kasses, Bethany Liu, Imogen Muldoon, Elena Cavdarovski, Melissa Danelutti and Jessie Marie Rifkin. Amidst the demands and pressures of HSC preparation, our students have demonstrated perseverance, artistic sophistication, and perceptive storytelling through their chosen mediums which included oil and acrylic painting, digital drawing and photography. Their inclusion in the showcase is a testament to their hard work, passion, and commitment to artistic excellence. St Ursula’s students achieved the highest number of Band 6 results in Visual Arts in 2024 out of all Sydney Catholic Schools, with 11 students achieving this outstanding result.
We are also proud to celebrate the remarkable achievements of two talented Year 10 students from St Ursula’s College, Zoe Pandis and Daniella Danaskos, whose outstanding portraits have been selected for exhibition in the esteemed Sydney Catholic Schools Portrait Prize at the McGlade Gallery, ACU. This prestigious event highlights the creative excellence and skill of student artists across the network, and our students have truly shined.
Their portraits, crafted with artistry and thoughtfulness whilst they were studying portraiture in Year 9 Visual Arts last year. This recognition is a significant milestone in their artistic journey, and we couldn’t be more thrilled for them.
Congratulations to our young artists for this exceptional accomplishment! We extend our gratitude to the Sydney Catholic Schools for organizing this event and providing an invaluable opportunity for students to share their talents with the wider community. Here’s to continuing to nurture creativity and celebrating the transformative power of art!
