Master of Arts - Fine Art

The Master of Arts Fine Art offers a distinct focus and reassessment of autobiography and the familiar, through differing understandings of creativity. What constitutes a meaningful and useful research methodology in one culture may be considered unknown, unnecessary or redundant in another.

Students are encouraged to explore and unpick their own working strategies and methods, in the context of broader cultural and educational differences offered by the course and their peers, in order to explore how ‘detour permits access’ (Jullien, 2004). The resulting tensions form the very fabric of this Fine Art course, as deliberate cross-cultural dialogue provides a vehicle for working rationales, practices and methodologies.
