Come out of the closet
Episode 1.
Theodore Somerville Scott introduces his work in secondary school (A Level Art & Design) with honesty and the genuine intention of exploring the complex emotions involved in revealing one's sexual identity. To gain a deeper insight, Theo interviewed his queer family members and used symbolic images that are carefully chosen to express the delicate topic in his project. "A Level was my starting point of thinking about what kind of artist that I want to be."
Come out of the closet

Theodore Somerville Scott explains his more recent work after he left secondary school (See Episode 1). He continues to explore his topic - gender diversity - and now, as a sculptor studying Artist Blacksmithing at HCA, he manipulates materials and shapes forms with symbolic meaning. His own experience as a queer person as well as various issues in the LGBTQIA+ community are discussed with sincerity.
Happy Lunar New Year!
This video is made with the idea of introducing and celebrating the Lunar New year to students in the UK, based on an assembly that I presented at my school (British mainstream) some years ago. Student responses have been extremely positive and appreciative as they value the diversity of their experience. It was also reassuring that these opportunities boosted students’ curiosity and deepened their understanding of other cultures.
