I’ve decided to do an EPQ related to my Classical Civilisation course and I’ve convinced myself to make an artefact. I’m going to make a Greek amphora in the same style, using the same (or as similar as possible) materials/techniques, but I’m not entirely sure what I should etch onto the piece. I think I’d quite like to draw comparisons between what the Greeks considered ‘art’ and what we think ‘art’ is today, by using the ancient technē (get it..?!) but with a modern perspective. I know that it was rather common for Greek pottery to be made by one person and painted/decorated by another, and I feel that this could support my idea?
Does anyone see where I’m coming from? And, if I do go forward with this, does anyone have any ideas as to what ‘art’ I could paint on it?
Thank you!

Art is **** nowadays. You could do a blank canvas with a red dot on the left

Heya, maybe you could paint a depiction of a Greek myth, but paint the figures in the styles of different art movements, so it goes from traditional Greek figures to Renaissance to Impressionist, so you get a history of art throughout the vase? Idk if that was what you were implying but I hope this helps.
Also, are you starting Classical Civilisations this year? Because I'm going into Year 12 and its going to be one of my A-Levels and I was thinking it would be cool to build up a Classics support group on here

))I’ve actually just finished year 12 but I agree with your group idea as well. It’d be an amazing opportunity to share scholarship and help each other with things like this/related to the course. Will you be studying on the OCR board (if you know)? Having a platform on which to share knowledge and opinions would really help any Classics students, so it’s definitely something to look into!
