Description:

An art research degree offers you the opportunity to explore your innovative practice as research through the production of an original body of work and to place your work in relation to the work of other practitioners in a contemporary and historical context. You’ll draw upon and extend existing knowledge and practices, and you’ll show that the research makes an original contribution to knowledge. Typically, we’ll help you to focus and refine detailed aspects of your practice as a research process – aspects which may or may not have previously been associated with art practice or other exploratory and creative forms of research. We’ll encourage you to more critically examine the thoughts and actions of others, as well as your own imperatives as a practising artist and/or art researcher. You’ll develop a thesis in parallel with practice-based research, and we’ll help you focus on appropriate developments of your practice for pursuing your as research and work with you to refine appropriate forms of discourse and dissemination.
