Advanced studies in painting, photography, sculpture and ceramics. On completion of these studies, students are expected to have developed attitudes towards their discipline which promote understanding of the artistic context of their practice; increased their understanding of the process of formulating, planning and conducting research programs relevant to their practice and discipline by individual research proposals and carrying them through with appropriate supervision; critical and analytical skills appropriate to individually formulated research topics, resulting in a research paper; verbal presentation, documentation of practice, networking and public presentation of artwork; and artwork and a research paper for critical assessment as a conclusion on the ongoing supervision processes which are essentially critical in nature.
An
extensive course of professional studio practice in painting, photography,
ceramics or sculpture, with emphasis on critical evaluation. Students are
encouraged to revise and strengthen the assumptions and beliefs upon which
their undergraduate work was based. Progress during the course is monitored by
regular reports from the student to the supervisor. Further details are
