Visual Arts

On this page

The Visual Art specialisation aims to develop a personal visual vocabulary and support experimentation and innovation. Students will gain experience in creative production methods across media and disciplines such as painting, drawing, sculpture, installation, video and photography. They will conceive, implement and evaluate artworks in the context of the professional gallery exhibition, or an equivalent public outcome, and engage with the wider visual arts community. Practical work will be supported by rigorous critical analysis and interpretation informed by contemporary and historical art production and discourse.
