Rubric – beautiful work

Mastery
Proficient
Working
Conveys a sense of hard work
Conveys sense of mediocrity
Obviously done with little care
Channels a surge of (intended) emotion
Alright execution but no “it” factor
No reaction from audience
Establishes a connection with the audience
Weakly connects with the audience
Audience is left estranged and disconnected for the work/artist
Relatively accessible and/or grasped
Requires some prior knowledge to be grasped
Leaves audience confused, purpose of work obscured
