Our Year 11 and 12 Art Making and Exhibiting students recently visited the Bendigo Art Gallery to experience the incredible Frida Kahlo: Life of an Icon exhibition.

The excursion provided students with a valuable opportunity to engage with the life and work of one of the most significant artists of the 20th century.

The exhibition featured immersive digital installations, rare photographs, and personal stories that shed light on Frida Kahlo’s artistic journey, identity, and cultural impact. Students explored how Kahlo’s personal experiences, challenges, and Mexican heritage shaped her unique visual language.
