Brief Description This module provides the opportunity to build on previous experience and understanding to establish an individual artistic objective within a continuous personal practice. Students undertake practical and contextual research to define and evaluate core issues central to their work, with particular reference to content and process.
Indicative Syllabus

Students are supported in defining the practical and theoretical contexts to their work and in developing strategies towards establishing a sustainable and ongoing work process. The nature of the work undertaken for this module is to be negotiated with the tutor(s) in tutorials and documented in a study agreement.
