School of Art and Design · ANU College of Arts and Social Sciences
With a focus on image and object making, this course enables students to develop a knowledge and understanding of the principles of design and construction. Relevant to students with any level of experience the course introduces a range of skills and concepts to support future practice-led research. Each week students are presented with and guided through a series of tasks and approaches to develop conceptual, aesthetic and technical skills through haptic exploration within a studio environment. Students build a progressively developed experimental portfolio of two and three dimensional artworks for assessment. A deeper knowledge of contextual historical and contemporary art and design practice is developed through weekly slide presentations and critical reflections.
