Course overview
This course will consolidate students' art practice through intense studio work, to critically examine notions of construction and deconstruction as they impact upon the production of contemporary visual art and to locate their work within the relevant field of contemporary arts practice. This course will provide students with the opportunity to integrate knowledge and research gained in their program with an expectation that the work produced will reflect this in the degree of resolution. Students will work in a studio of choice as defined by their major study with an emphasis on the importance of students developing an informed and self-critical approach to artmaking through projects that reflect current issues in local and international arts practice. Comparative studies of major art practice will be undertaken, involving studio practice and current discourse and research in the field. Students will have the opportunity to move outside of that discipline to fulfil their study aims.
Course learning outcomes
- Undertake detailed research and analysis with a view to producing personally meaningful artworks
- Create original and resolved artworks with a range of cultural references
- Contextualise these artworks within contemporary art practice, with particular reference to the field of specialisation
