In art lessons at YCIS Chongqing, our Upper Primary students develop their creativity and imagination through many activities. This programme builds on students’ skills and supports their improved use of materials, tools, and techniques. Students also explore the purpose and history of art and design at various periods and throughout a range of cultures.

Recently, our Year 5 students learnt about the works of well-known Russian artist, Wassily Kandinsky’s, in their art and math lessons. In art class, students are working very hard to create a colourful and thought-provoking new mural to decorate our campus; each student created their own circular tile choosing their own colour combinations in their own distinct approach inspired by Kandinsky’s, “Everything…begins with a dot.”

We look forward to the final presentation of the new mural that will be sure to brighten up our campus and share the talents of our students with the wider community.
