At CIS, we believe that art education is an essential pathway to nurturing students’ creativity, self-expression, and cultural understanding. Our curriculum places a special emphasis on integrating hands-on art practices, guiding students to explore diverse forms such as installation art. Through these experiences, students can convey powerful themes and ideas within three-dimensional spaces.
CIS encourages students to find their own artistic voices while deepening their understanding of the world around them. This exhibition showcases several creative projects from our students—let’s take a closer look:
