Quick questions on IA3 Project, inquiry phase 3, in QCE Visual Art Unit 4

By IA3 the inquiry is complete, so the Project consolidates rather than starts. The focus established in IA1 and developed through IA2 reaches its resolution here, now extended across the second concept. Consolidation means the body of work reads as one sustained inquiry, with the earlier phases visible as the foundation the resolution stands on. The work should answer the same question it began with, deepened rather than abandoned.

Unit 4 is Art as alternate, so IA3 is where you apply new knowledge, skills or processes to reach an alternate, enriched resolution. The innovation is not bolted on; it is synthesised into the inquiry, pushing the focus further than the first concept could. Meaningful innovation deepens the answer to the inquiry question, distinguishing a resolved body of work from a merely finished one.

The Project is presented with a supporting response (such as an artist statement) that frames the inquiry as a whole. It names the focus and inquiry question, identifies key influences, and explains how the body of work resolves the inquiry. The supporting response frames the set; it does not caption each piece. A strong one makes the connection between question and work explicit so the audience reads the body of work as intended.

The Project presents the resolved artworks and the supporting response, with the body of work standing as the culmination of evidence built across all three phases. The presentation should let an audience read the inquiry as one argument, from focus through the two concepts to resolution, with the innovation visibly deepening the answer.
