Subject outline
Studio Studies 5 consolidates and refines information, ideas, skills and working attitudes in preparation for developing individual projects and independent research in relation to 2D or 3D studio art disciplines. The course emphasises independent thinking and problem-solving, leading to the establishment of a sound interdisciplinary art practice within and across the media of the student's choosing. Students are encouraged to take greater responsibility for a negotiated, self-directed program that uniquely expresses their interests and which can be contextualised within the broader framework of contemporary art practice.
