All departments in the School of Fine Art - Media, Painting, Fine Print , Sculpture and Applied Materials - help students to develop a highly individual way of seeing and interpreting, and of expressing themselves visually. Emphasis is placed on visual awareness and artistic analysis, on acquiring skills in the use of both traditional and new materials and media.
School of Fine Art
Seeing the world anew, placing the accepted and unquestioned into a different light, exploring the boundaries between the private and public sphere, between the individual and society - doing it visually.
Fine Print within Fine Art spans the autographic arts, mechanical reproduction and digital media. Fine Print overlaps with a broad range of disciplines whilst maintaining a distinct culture of its own.
