This course will advance, widen and deepen your existing fine art practice through a series of modules designed to enable your progress through practice-led research. Dialogic exchange is at the heart of this course of study, staging, at its core, teaching and learning approaches in the form of regular dynamic group work, supported by individual tuition.

This course cradles all specialisms within contemporary practice such as painting, drawing, sculpture, text, performance, media and sound. The core seminars will use group work to explore the wider field of practice within which such disciplines are situated, and deepen individually nuanced discourses through an individual tutorial programme.

Working with subject specialists you will be introduced to practice-led research approaches to advance your knowledge acquisition of advanced critical and analytical methods and approaches in your own practice. The programme of study will explore your creative ambitions in the context of both knowledge and market-led fields.

The course will explore your creative ambitions across various academic, practical and professional contexts. The course begins with a peer-to-peer sharing of personal intentions for your developing practice, and progresses to a conclusive moment of public sharing, where you will materialise theories, concepts, techniques and processes as resolved artwork. Throughout the course you will be supported to articulate your ideas in visual, oral, written and material forms.
