Course overview

From unmade beds to super-realist oil paintings, contemporary art covers a boundless diversity of styles. We reflect this in open approach. You’ll explore materials, media and processes. You’ll debate your work. You’ll bring together ideas, processes and theory to develop your own position. And you’ll have the opportunity to reach audiences, to contribute to the changing world of visual arts and to define its future.

We encourage your ambitions through studio practice, cultural theory and professional development. You’ll learn to analyse your work and question your role as an artist and how your work is understood. You’ll develop your own creative problem-solving abilities and apply them in a variety of ways.

You’ll work alongside professional artists in galleries, museums, schools and community groups, and develop your awareness of the wider world through exhibitions and space specific projects.
