This module seeks to assess the student&©s ability to identify and communicate effectively the intellectual development and critical awareness show in their work. This involves an ability to review and consolidate organisational and exhibition strategies and present a comprehensive documentation of practical explorations and findings. Central to this appraisal will be concern for heightened rationalisation of thematic ideas implicit to a body of realised and emergent work.
Aims of course
1 To encourage you to successfully communicate a detailed and highly advanced knowledge of relevant theoretical debates concerning the thematic focus of practice-led work.
2 To allow you to pursue advanced study of theoretical and organisational issues appropriate to a specialist field of practice.
3 To provide students with the requisite knowledge and research skills to creatively contextualise their practice and imaginatively demonstrate its wider validity
