Fine Art MFA

This studio-based and research-centred programme is ideal if you wish to explore the subtle and complex relationships between production and display of contemporary art within a context of professional excellence.

The course challenges you to:

• develop your personal vision and create clear, meaningful and appropriate work to strengthen your position as a artist;
• think about your future methods of practice;
• explore changes in the field; and
• place your work within specific professional contexts.

It will support a broad base of research interests. To start the process of self-initiated practice, applicants must submit a proposal outlining the projected nature of their research with their application.

What will you study?

You will focus on practical and theoretical issues surrounding the development of fine art practice in relation to specific contexts. You will also interrogate the positioning of your practice through curatorial intervention and collaboration, providing a thorough preparation for professional practice and/or further research.

Many of the staff in the Faculty of Art, Design and Architecture are research active. This ensures they are in touch with the latest thinking and bring best practice to your studies.
