SYNOPSIS:

This  unit provides the opportunity for the student to investigate   and
develop   through  an  agreed programme with  relevant studio  lecturers
and  supervisors,   the  conceptual   and  theoretical  processes  which
explore   and  extend   visual  art   practice.   These  projects   will
demonstrate  the  integration  of theory and practice.

This  is  the first of four units presenting students with opportunities
for    specialised,  in-depth  studio  practice  and  related   research
projects in their chosen media.

OBJECTIVES:

On successful completion of this unit students will be able to:

1. successfully achieve levels of creative practice by undertaking self-directed, project oriented studies in visual arts practice;
2. achieve appropriate practical skills and levels of accomplishment, through the synthesis of theory and practice;
3. attain increased capability for developing selective, individual programmes of creative investigation, together with a capacity for constructive self-criticism;

 Description                                                    Weighting(%)

The development, realisation and articulation of art
concepts and production is a fundamental basis of
visual arts/crafts practice.  This is the first unit in a
development of studio projects.  In consultation with
studio heads and supervisors, students establish a
written contract of proposed work.  Practice may
involve a specialist orinter-disciplinary approach.
The written proposal will comprise preliminary work,
preparation, set projects, work schedules, monthly
critical assessments involving the discipline studio
heads, and assessment criteria.  Acquired safety
procedures, studio drawing, journals and self
evaluation are an essential component of this
unit.  Assessment requirements include attendance at
studio lectures, tutorials, demonstrations, critiques
and discussion forums, as well as the presentation of
completed work.
