An introduction to Fine Art studio projects, this module will develop a framework of working methods that apply throughout the course. You will be encouraged to develop ideas through practice and will have an increasing grasp of techniques and skills in your chosen art forms.
Through practical projects and discussion, you will be encouraged to develop an explorative, and increasingly individual, sense of enquiry. A critical approach to your own work and the work of other artists will be informed by your investigations of contemporary and historical visual art practice.
This module usually involves an exhibition trip to an art gallery, practical exercises such as drawing classes, independent practical work in the studio, personal research, group critiques, as well as group and individual sessions with tutors and visiting artists.
The module concentrates on formal and cultural concerns in order to equip you with the necessary framework of practice and criticism for progression onto Projects 2.
