This course explored historical and contemporary image-making practices through the lens of medium format photography and the analogue photographic archive. It offered the opportunity to develop advanced camera skills, and understand how different camera technologies offer different ways of seeing and representing the world. Addressing the persistence of analogue culture in a digital age, the course introduced methodologies for working with archival material and obsolete formats, incorporating hybrid digital-analogue workflows.
This course introduced students to intermediate skills and broader contextual knowledge for working with hot glass across the visual arts and design fields. It encouraged skills acquisition and speculative material exploration in response to set projects and individually directed investigations. This course fostered the acquisition of skills for glass blowing, including colour work, traditional vessel shaping methods as well as alternative forming processes such as mould blowing. Relevant cold working methods were also introduced.
This course introduced me to fundamental skills and contextual knowledge for working with molten glass in a contemporary visual arts and/or design context. I learnt how to manipulate and transform hot glass in response to set projects across areas of glass blowing, hot glass casting, and cold working.
In this course I was introduced to the importance of considering the temporality of artworks in contemporary art practice. The duration of artworks has become more and more important because working with time is a way to critically examine and impact how value is established, not only for artworks, but commodities and cultural objects more broadly.
This course offered a critical and practical introduction to video, with a focus on the experimental possibilities of the digital moving image in contemporary art and culture. The course unpacked how social, technical and cultural shifts have impacted film and video, and introduce the work of practitioners approaching the medium from radically different positions. Through a series of practical projects, I explored a range of conceptual, technical and aesthetic strategies and gained practical experience in editing video, managing the timeline and methods of presentation and dissemination.
This course provided instruction in basic and advanced experimental photographic processes. This course included projects which explored the conceptual, thematic and technical aspects of these processes. I gained skills in a range of experimental photographic processes and techniques and have the opportunity to explore areas of interest through the development of individual projects.
This course offered a critical and practical introduction into the principles of analogue photography and darkroom processes. Through a series of practical projects, I encountered a range of different techniques, chemical operations and approaches to cameraless photography.
