Module Details
Module Indicative Content
The Fine Art Personal Project Resolution module focuses on the production and resolution of a body of artwork for exhibition. The work presented for exhibition will be supported and contextualised by a portfolio document and supporting work. You will be expected to use available studio/gallery space to test and rehearse your work in this context in order to understand the dynamics of exhibiting. This module is characterised by a series of learning events such as lectures, briefings, tutorials and seminars that allow you to capitalise on your achievements in the studio to date and support independent study.

The key skills of visual, written and oral presentation are promoted through this module, and the development of these competencies will enable you to represent your practice to a wide range of audiences. You will also be encouraged to identify and articulate the relationship of your own practice to relevant contexts. In the course of the module you will develop a range of skills that will enable you to produce your graduate exhibition and accompanying portfolio to a high professional standard.
