| What has NAFA School of Visual Arts got to do with “CREATIVE RIOT?” |
| Creative Riot: NAFA School of Visual Arts (SVA) Graduation Show 2007 |
| The NAFA SVA Diploma Graduation Show 2007 encourages artistic exploration through wildest imagination which sets the institution running uncontrollably alive. To all students and staff, NAFA is the epicentre that motivates and promotes intense creative investigation and creation, beyond creative boundaries. |
| |
| Creative partakes in utilising skill and imagination to produce an artwork. Riot is beyond control. Creative Riot acts upon the understanding of allowing individual imagination to develop creative ideas without attempting to cease it. This year, the show provides opportunities for exhibition goers to see art and design creative artworks beyond their imagination. |
| |
| Biggest Creative Showcase of Riotous Visual Artworks |
| To be held from 16 - 19 March 2007 at NAFA and Sculpture Square, there will be more than 1,200 inspiring riotous visual artworks by more than 312 graduates from our six diploma programmes - Fine Art, Environmental Design, Interior Design, Multimedia, Visual Communication and Art (Teaching) on display. |
