Overview
The Foundation
Degree in Fine Art aims to enable individuals to build and define their practice
in a constructively critical and pluralistic environment. Students will be
encouraged to experiment, take risks and question accepted modes of art
production, whilst informed and mindful of the legacy of traditional processes.
Autonomy and self-confidence will be developed so that participants can
undertake sustained, independent investigations and develop the necessary skills
and critical faculties to operate as professional art practitioners in all areas
of the creative industries.
