This course consists of project based activities, enabling students to develop practice-led research processes with an in-depth awareness of studio-based practice in relation to visual arts. The course supports speculative methods of investigation and studio-based exploration with critical reflection and analysis. It creates a collaborative, cross-disciplinary environment for students to articulate and critique ideas. Through research processes students build relevant theoretical contexts.
