NSC
TOPIC 1: SOURCEBOOK (Conceptualised by the development and realisation
of creative ideas)
The sourcebook provides insight into how you have formed ideas, how many
alternatives you have investigated and other processes leading to the final work.
The sourcebook should clearly communicate all thought processes leading to the
making of the artwork.
You should visually tell the 'story' of how your artwork was conceived,
developed and produced through drawing, experimentation and writing.
It should reflect your individuality and creativity as a Visual Arts candidate.
The sourcebook forms an important part of this examination. You may work on it at
school and/or at home.
Clearly mark this sourcebook as examination work and present it with your final
artwork, TOPIC 2.
Direct copying from magazines, the internet, etc. is NOT allowed. Direct copying of an
image that is not your own, WILL BE PENALISED. This is a form of plagiarism and
is unacceptable.
The process of TRANSFORMATION of the source material is of utmost importance.
If you need to use appropriate borrowed images, you must combine them with your
own original images TO DEVELOP YOUR OWN INTERPRETATION.
The sourcebook is part of your creative journey to develop the final artwork. It should
reflect your creativity as an art candidate by being aesthetically exciting and creative in
its presentation.

within the confines of the art room, within a minimum of 12 hours and a
maximum of 24 hours.
GENERAL GUIDELINES
1. You are required to produce ONE artwork in the practical discipline that you
have chosen this year.
2. You may present your artwork as a single piece or possibly in the form of a
diptych, triptych or a series of works that read as one artwork.

regarded as an examination irregularity.
4. You have to discuss the question paper with your Visual Arts teacher PRIOR to
starting the final artwork.
5. There are no restrictions on size, but the artwork must be manageable and
durable in terms of transportation to the examination centre, if required by the
province.
6. Remember the importance of the elements and principles of art, such as line,
shape, colour, texture, space, rhythm, balance, harmony, proportion and
composition.

THEME
Rituals
What are your daily rituals and habits? Going to school, brushing your teeth, going for a
walk, yoga, meditation, reading, gelling or braiding your hair, applying make-up, checking
your inbox and meeting your friends at the skatepark. What are your family's rituals: going
to a soccer match, playing Xbox, having Sunday lunch or a picnic in the park?

This theme is meant to inspire and challenge you. It is open to a wide range of
interpretations within your specific discipline. Your interpretation should be the
culmination of the creative process you embarked on in Grade 10.
FIGURE 5: San people, Rock Painting, Botswana. Photo by the University of
Witwatersrand, date unknown.
Rituals have always been part of humanity. The San people believe that sickness is
due to social struggles/conflict. The performance of medicine dances emphasises
relationships and frees people of illness and negative forces. The medicine songs
performed during the dances are activated by the women singing and clapping and the
men dancing. During the performance a man dances behind the person he is in conflict
with. The rhythmic unity of their bodies induces trance, rebuilding goodwill, and helps
with tracking, hunting and sharing meat.

Masks are often associated with rituals. African masks are seen as part of a
ceremonial costume. They are used in religious and social events to represent the
spirits of ancestors or to control the good and evil forces in the community. Some
combine human and animal features to unite man with his natural environment.

FIGURE 8: A ritual can also relate to cultural activities or traditions that happen in
everyday life. The Kaapse Klopse or Cape Minstrel Carnival comes alive to
celebrate the new year. Other carnivals include the Mardi Gras in New Orleans and
the Carnival in Rio de Janeiro.

The word 'ritual' is often connected with cultural and religious ceremonies, like
graduations, baptism/christenings or processions. They include worship rites, rites of
passage and purification rites. As children mature a special puberty rite of passage,
initiation, is meant to help them move smoothly from childhood into adulthood. Through
initiation, young adults learn about the traditions and customs of their community. Rites
of passage are important in nation-building and identity formation.
FIGURE 9: Rasheed Araeen, Bismullah, five-colour photographs on paper,
acrylic and gold paint on canvases, 1988.
Artists often reference rituals through objects, as seen in Araeen's Bismullah.
Araeen explores his identity as a Muslim in British society through
photographs referencing Islamic rituals.

FIGURE 23: Mona Hatoum, Performance Still Photograph, 1985.
Artists' performances often have a ritualistic quality. Artists create and use their own
personal mythologies in order to explore their identity. Mona Hatoum explores the
fragility of the human condition under threat. Hatoum walked barefoot through the
streets of London for nearly an hour with Doc Marten boots, usually worn by the
police, attached to her ankles by their laces. This act, captured in the
Performance Still Photograph in 1985, reminds us of religious pilgrimages
where pilgrims endure extreme hardship to show their belief and faith.

Begin by conceptualising your work in your sourcebook using the theme RITUALS.
It is important to give a PERSONAL response and steer away from clichéd imagery.
It can be descriptive, symbolic or metaphorical. Using your research material, find an
original, creative solution to create a truly individual interpretation of RITUALS.
Use the guidelines below to create an artwork in which you share ideas, emotions
and thoughts about RITUALS. NOTE: Your teacher must facilitate this process.
Intentions, aims or ideas that you wish to convey
Images that would best express your intentions
Exploration of and experimentation with materials and techniques
At least 30% should be drawings that explain your concept development
Techniques that would be the most appropriate to express your media and ideas
Size, format and presentation that would best suit your ideas
See the assessment criteria on pages 17 and 18.
DRAWING IN SOURCEBOOK
Drawing can be interpreted as visualising observations, feelings and ideas through mark
making. Hand skills must be demonstrated and can range from simple line drawings to
explain ideas to full tonal drawings. Different media, styles and techniques can be used
to express ideas and concepts.
It is of the utmost importance that the sourcebook relates to the artwork and
visually tells the story of how it was conceived, developed and produced. THERE
MUST BE A CLEAR LINK BETWEEN THE SOURCEBOOK AND THE ARTWORK.
You may consider the following in relation to the idea of RITUALS:
Your daily rituals
Personal rituals and habits
Family and group rituals
Religious rituals, i.e. marriage, festivals, carnivals, reconciliation, etc.
Secular rituals, i.e. birthdays, graduating, baptism, dating, etc.
Identity rituals, i.e. language, cultural, etc.
NOTE: Create an artwork based on RITUALS; not just an illustration of the theme.
Consider the following in your final artwork:
Symbols and metaphors
Formal elements
Narrative
Style
Messages/Meanings
The use of media and technique
Be creative and innovative
SUBJECT MATTER
Avoid the following and/or consult your teacher if unsure:
All visual imagery/artworks should be in line with your school's code of conduct.
Be mindful of/sensitive to all cultural practices.

ADDENDUM A: GENERAL GUIDELINES
1. The candidate is required to produce ONE artwork in the PRACTICAL
DISCIPLINE that he/she HAS CHOSEN THIS YEAR. Specialised options include
drawing, painting, sculpture, printmaking, multimedia work, photography,
installations, new media, etc.
2. Some candidates need the freedom to work across disciplines. This is in keeping
with contemporary art practices. A specialised focus on painting could include the
exploration of three-dimensional work and new media.
3. Candidates' artworks are marked according to the criteria for the subject Visual
Arts, and not according to the specialised discipline, e.g. painting and
photography. In all specialised disciplines there should be a balance between
technical (form) and conceptual (content) aspects within the selected approach.
The candidate's intention towards and approach to both the technical and
conceptual aspects of the work should be considered when assessing the
artwork(s).
4. Contemporary artists pull from an infinite variety of materials, sources and styles
to create art. Contemporary artists working in the Postmodern Era embrace the
notion of 'artistic pluralism', the acceptance of a variety of artistic intentions and
styles.
5. Today's contemporary art world shows a cross-over/integration of media/
technique, which means our pre-conceived ideas and techniques are constantly
changing. Practical work should always be informed by contemporary art
practice. This must be kept in mind when marking examination work.
6. Creativity, innovation and individuality should be stressed.

NSC
ADDENDUM B: GUIDELINES FOR NEW MEDIA/MULTIMEDIA/DIGITAL ART, ETC.
According to the Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statement (CAPS) there are no
prescriptions about specialised disciplines, such as darkroom photography, printmaking,
drawing and sculpture. Teachers should consult the CAPS document for guidance along
with referencing traditional utilisation and contemporary fine art practices in these
disciplines. Below are general guidelines for the grey areas in contemporary disciplines:
new media/multimedia/digital art, etc.
Working in new media/multimedia/digital art does NOT guarantee high marks.
SOURCEBOOK: NEW MEDIA/MULTIMEDIA/DIGITAL ART, ETC.
Concept development and realisation must play an important role in all new
media/multimedia/digital work. Evidence of the candidate's thought processes
leading to the final realisation of the concept in his/her work should be visually
evident.
The sourcebook must show evidence of:
o Relevant source material – own sources generated with the use of software or
created by hand and digitised through various input devices
o Concept development (thumbnail sketches, writing and/or a storyboard)
o Research on artists following similar approaches
o Documentation of programs used, e.g. screenshots
o A minimum of 30% should be drawings to explain concept development.
It must show evidence of hand skills.
ARTWORK: NEW MEDIA/MULTIMEDIA/DIGITAL ART, ETC.
All new media art must emphasise artistic voice over technical skill. In other
words, it is not the skill of the candidate in a specific computer program that is
assessed, but the aesthetic use thereof. Therefore, research of contemporary artists
is vital to create an own artwork. (Candidates must distinguish between using these
new types of media to create art, as opposed to design, e.g. music videos.)
Using computer applications as a tool to realise concept, expressive and formal
concerns (similar to how a painter would use his brush and paint)
Candidates must consider conceptual, aesthetic, expressive and formal concerns as
fundamental to the approach, including sensitivity to context.
Personal control and execution of work
Presentation is important:
o In art galleries and museums, video art and animations are usually presented in
a large format to engulf the viewer with a total sensory experience. Although this
is not possible in most schools, the candidate must consider the impact of the
work on a computer screen.
o In two-dimensional digital work the final artwork cannot be only an A4 print.
It has to be a series of at least THREE A4 works that relate in narrative OR
printed in A2 and mounted.
In animation/video art consideration must be given to space, time, movement,
narrative, chronology, interaction of image and sound.
Candidates must consider the soundtrack in animation/video art carefully. Often
the soundtrack gives a 'music video' feel to the work and contradicts the message.
Candidates can create their own sounds.

NSC
DIGITAL PHOTOGRAPHY
The minimum requirement is FOUR A4-related digital prints OR something similar in
size, e.g. THREE A3 prints or ONE A2 or larger print.
The photographs should be conceptualised and presented as ONE artwork,
e.g. follow a narrative.
Place the digital images on a CD into the front of the sourcebook. All digital software
procedures must be documented thoroughly in the sourcebook. The candidate must
keep a record of screenshots that illustrate all the editing decisions made. This is
the only way to validate digital work as authentic, since so much digital artwork is
available for download on the internet. Teachers must monitor the development of
the candidate's digital process.
The sourcebook must include the following:
o The program used (e.g. Adobe Photoshop 7)
o All digital software procedures. The candidate must keep a record of
screenshots that illustrate all the editing decisions made.
o The tools the candidate used to manipulate his/her images, in other words
adjustments made, filters used (distort, noise, render, sketch), etc.
Candidates should consider the presentation of the work carefully.
Candidates selecting this option must familiarise themselves with contemporary
developments in fine art digital photography.
Photography, both traditional and digital, is not only a technical exercise, but also
encompasses questions of aesthetics, intent, content, etc. in the assessment
criteria.
Do all manipulation and changes to the photographs during the 24 hours of the
examination.
Assessment of photography
Interpretation and communication of the theme. Candidates should be able to
compose and establish relationships between images.
The work must reflect a high degree of originality and strong creative qualities.
It should read as fine art, therefore conceptualisation in the sourcebook is essential.
Images must relate to one another and the theme. No random selection.
Formal elements and principles.
Photography may be combined with other media.
INSTALLATION
Installations break away from traditional painting and sculpture by creating
three-dimensional spaces that viewers can enter and be surrounded by an artist's
processes and visions. An environment is created by arranging objects in space,
and environments that change or enhance the space itself.
It should be in line with contemporary developments in fine art practices.
Two and three-dimensional elements within an environment.
Candidates may use ready-mades.
Viewer interaction with space is important.
Sensitivity to viewer reception and interaction on multiple sensory levels.
Installation artworks must be resolved fully, both technically and conceptually.
There should be extensive research and concept development in the sourcebook to
justify the artwork.

PERFORMANCE ART
Plan, document and rehearse performance pieces thoroughly.
Make drawings throughout the process of conceptualising the performance.
Document the performance photographically, videographically and with drawings
and words.
Pay careful attention to the subtle differences between Performance Art as Visual
Art and Performance Art as Dramatic Art.
For the final examination the documentation of the performance will be assessed
and not the actual performance due to the nature of the examination and
moderation process.
