This course provides outstanding field-based visual art engagement opportunities with environments in and around the Canberra region. It offers supervised camping-based field trips that provide primary research opportunities to inform the production of artwork, both on-site and in the studio. Representatives and artists from local First Nation communities and organisations contribute to this course to enhance student understanding of cultural relationships with Country and the ongoing impacts of colonisation. A field work fee is attached to this course to cover the cost of travel, camping and other field-based expenses. Students will only be permitted to undertake field trips following participation in a field work briefing which includes a WHS Hazard Assessment, and completion of ANU travel documentation. This course may be delivered as a semester length course or offered as an intensive. This course is repeatable for credit, up to a maximum of 12 units, and if repeated must be repeated with a different topic each time. Disclaimer: Applicants are advised that due to circumstances beyond the University's control (for example, floods or bush fires) it may not be possible for students to commence or complete this course as advertised, in which case an alternative lesson plan will be arranged to fulfil the course requirements.
