VIS4003 Studio Project, Exhibition and Dissertation A (FOART)

Units 1.0 (Visual Arts and Crafts) Band 1

Pre-requisite: VIS4000

Synopsis

The Studio Project constitutes a major commitment as it necessitates the production of a body of original work taken through to exhibition status. The mounting of the resulting exhibition in a thoroughly considered, appropriate and approved space is an assessable component of the course. To support the studio project students are required to write a dissertation that articulates their practice. This paper will detail the concept of the work in the context of personal development, supported by appropriate work-in-progress documentation, as well as its placement in a wider national and international context. Reference must be made to an historical and cultural perspective that indicates an understanding of contemporary art theory.
