Course summary

This course offers a breadth of experience working with a variety of media that enables you to develop a visual art practice, relevant and meaningful to your personal ideas and aspirations. Central to the course philosophy is the belief that interaction, dialogue and critical reflection are key to developing engagement with, and understanding of, the cultural, social, political and philosophical contexts for the production and consumption of contemporary art. The curriculum is designed around the acquisition of five key areas of development: personal, technical, critical, contextual and professional. These skill sets inform the evolution of your practice, determining preferred working methods and engagement with theory, honing skills both practical and conceptual.
