• Semester 1 (Day)

Synopsis

Students undertaking the Honours course in Visual Arts will work in  a
specific  studio area. Its selection will be based on proven expertise
in  one  of the six areas offering specialization: ceramics,  painting
printmaking, sculpture, textiles, drawing, curatorial studies provided
suitable  supervision and studio space is available.  Studio  practice
should indicate a clear emergence of an individual visual language  as
well as a high level of technical and artistic competence.

Students  will submit a comprehensive project proposal outlining  both
the concept and practice of their particular visual field. The context
of  their  research  is a significant factor. This  should  take  into
account  personal and studio positions in relation to  Australian  and
international concerns. Appropriate historical underpinnings should be
linked  to  concepts  of  modern  theoretical  thinking.  The  Project
Development  proposal should also include a selection of comprehensive
supportive drawings, photographs, marquettes, folios, etcetera of  the
work  in  progress  as well as an indication of the  final  exhibition
format.
