C1.1 extend their understanding of the elements and principles of design, and use terminology related to these elements and principles cor- rectly and appropriately when creating or analysing a variety of art works (e.g., when analysing how artists’ manipulation of space, movement, form, and proportion affects meaning in an installation or an environmental work)
