Doha College unveiled wondrous pieces of art created by its students at the school’s annual visual arts exhibition at Intercontinental Doha The City, aimed at showcasing the creativity of students using a variety of media. The exhibition will be assessed by the chief moderator for Art and Design from Pearson.

The exhibition also welcomed renowned artist and calligrapher Sabah Arbilli. Arbilli has shown his calligraphy-based artworks throughout the world and he was impressed with the breadth of subjects and how the young students’ art projected them.

Doha College Principal Dr Steffen Sommers said that he was moved to the core by the talent and dedication of the students. The preparation that went into the concepts, the exceptionally detailed crafting and the inspired presentation, according to him, belies their young age.

 

Ferhan Khan, Head of Art and Photography at Doha College, was justifiably proud of the event.

The works on display form part of the pupils assessed coursework and examination portfolios for (I)GCSE and A-Levels. Once again, this year’s exhibition drew in a big crowd of parents, students, and other schools, as well as Australian Ambassador Axel Wabenhorst and representatives from the Ministry of Education and Higher Education.’
