About the subject:
Studio Exhibition Project & Independent Studio
This double subject follows on from Studio Art & Ideas in the Diploma (1st year) and encourages students to explore a range of art practices whilst developing their own approaches, helping them to become more self-directed and independent. Attention will be paid to methods and materials and the relationship to students’ ideas whether it is painting, sculpture, digital, drawing, photography or other. Students will take creative risks and experiment with different media with the view clarifying their own direction and becoming further drawn into their own work. The subject recognises that art is practiced through many disciplines and students may work in any form or media.
The subject is held over a full day with tutorial classes and critical feedback in the morning and independent studio time in the afternoon. Each trimester begins a theme or idea which the student uses to initiate a studio enquiry of their own. Students develop their work over 3 trimesters and engage in individual and group discussions about their work and the work of others, culminating in presentations in the gallery in the final week, week 11 of each trimester.
Students, as a key part of their course, will receive their own full-time dedicated studio space with the college.
The subject is made up of three-trimester study units: Studio Exhibition Project & Independent Studio A, Studio Exhibition Project & Independent Studio W and Studio Exhibition Project & Independent Studio S.
Single unit enrolment is welcome. Study units can be completed in any order. Classes are one session per week. A materials list will be given to students before they start. Completion of the three study units for this subject will complete the Studio Exhibition Project & Independent Studio subject requirement for the Advanced Diploma of Visual Art.
Prerequisite: Diploma of Visual Art or other experience.
Enrolment can be at any at trimester stage. Single trimester enrolment is available. Completing all three will complete the subject requirement for the Advanced Diploma of Visual Art.
