What are appropriate to intentions?Show answer
The word appropriate matters. AO2 is not "use as many materials as possible"; it is choosing media that suit the idea. Delicate botanical work might call for fine pen and watercolour; a theme of decay might call for rust, bleach and torn paper. Matching the medium to the meaning is part of the skill.
What is q1?Show answer
For a theme of your choice, plan four media experiments that each test a specific question, then explain how you would review them and refine towards one approach. [16 marks]
What is q2?Show answer
Name the two strands AO2 assesses and give a one-line example of each. [4 marks]
