Overview
This unit is the fifth in the Contemporary Practices sequence. In this unit emphasis is placed on independent investigation, and the development of the creative and expressive potential inherent in your work. Imagination combined with advanced conceptualisation and innovation in material manipulation should be manifest at this stage of your practice. Whilst providing a stimulating and supportive environment this unit provides a bridge between your experience in the supervised studio and a fully-fledged independent professional practice in the broader arts arena.
