Course summary

MA Fine Art cultivates your work and ideas while building your career as an artist. The course is designed as an artist’s residency to support you as you develop an individual artistic identity. You’ll have the opportunity to hone your existing skills and also to try new forms, all within a professional studio environment. You’ll pursue your creative ideas through a variety of approaches. You’ll work with sculpture, painting, photography, film, video, performance, text, sound, installation, drawing and printmaking – plus all manner of object and image making or combinations of media. There’s no limit or expectation as to the media or form you use.


You’ll actively explore your artistic research methods beyond the studio through presentations, exhibitions and textual outputs. These include writing artist’s statements, reviewing your practice throughout the module, presentations and an exhibition to showcase your practice.


You’re taught by experienced artists and academics with a background in internationally recognised research. The curriculum is underpinned by self-directed study, designed to support the independent research that can emerge from the making of art.


You learn through:


  • seminars, lectures and workshops
  • individual tutorials
  • group critiques and peer discussion
  • guest lectures and seminars
  • collaborative projects
  • exhibition making and public dissemination
  • presentations of work such as exhibitions, books and magazines
  • statements of practice
  • digital, billboard or sound assessment
