The Sophomore Studio I course introduces students to contemporary studio practices, pushing their foundational understanding of art towards a practical engagement which gives them the space to begin to build their own studio
practice. Learning from artistic concepts spanning the 1970s avant-garde to current practices, students explore how artists use strategies like appropriation, narrative construction, and intervention, and apply these frameworks to the development of their own work through a focus on material exploration, experimentation, and risk taking. Through a cross-media and cross-form approach, students develop technical skills across various mediums and disciplines. Through structured assignments that balance guidance with creative freedom, students learn about different concept development methods and begin to more deeply investigate the relationship between idea, execution, and form. Students learn to engage critically with current discourses and artistic trends, beginning to identify their own interests and concerns, and pulling these towards the development of their work. Regular critiques and presentations help students learn to discuss artistic work, fostering peer dialogue and helping students develop their ability to discuss their artistic work within a professional context. By semester’s end, students complete multiple finalized pieces demonstrating their developing technical abilities and conceptual engagement.

The course will revolve around presentations and assignments to create a platform for analyzing your own emerging practice and learning how to pinpoint and develop themes from within it. The second half of the course will encourage the development of your personal areas of interest through dialogue, peer review and personal tutorial. Sculpture will be approached as a process of materializing and actualizing connection to Spaces and Objects (including politics, humans, histories…) and will reassess classical connotations of sculptural form by opening them to a wider range of issues coming from video, architecture, document and research approaches to art-making.

Prerequisites : Foundation Core studios

The Sophomore Drawing I studio-based course explores drawing within contemporary fine art practices, building on existing technical knowledge while introducing experimental approaches to the medium. Students investigate drawing as concept, subject matter, and source for developing personal expressive language. Workshops focus on the conceptual and contextual frameworks of the drawing process, examining how mark-making and visual vocabulary emerge through experimentation with unfamiliar materials and processes. Emphasis is placed on building an individual inventory of lines, forms, and visual signs through conscious and unconscious creative approaches. Students explore the physicality and flexibility of drawing mediums and surfaces, engaging with notions of context, scale, and intensity. Research methods are introduced to support project development and encourage critical engagement with ideas and each assignment introduces conceptual frameworks and artistic references that guide students’ experimental work while allowing maximum creative freedom. The course encourages discovery and the unexpected, providing a terrain for accident and invention that differs from linear or logical creative processes. 

Prerequisites : Foundation Core studios

The Moving Image I studio-based course introduces the moving image as both an artistic language and a space for technical experimentation. Drawing on film theory, video art, digital media, and contemporary art practices, students explore montage and long takes, narrative construction, appropriation, artistic intervention, and genre-based experimentation. They acquire practical skills in Adobe Premiere and Adobe After Effects to produce and share moving-image work. Practical exercises include shooting and editing video, screen recording, desktop performance, looping GIFs and cinemagraphs, time-lapse, working with found footage, rotoscoping, and stop-motion. Projects are contextualised through examples by contemporary artists working with moving images. Screenings and readings are paired with weekly mini-assignments, ensuring that theory directly informs practice. The course foregrounds collaboration, research, oral presentation, and professional studio methods. Editing is introduced as a creative and technical practice, with attention to how images are assembled and experienced. By the end of the course, students are expected to demonstrate a foundational understanding of moving-image language, basic technical proficiency in editing workflows, and the ability to develop and articulate short experimental works.

This interdisciplinary course explores the rise of visual media, communication and information, within the context of a broad cultural shift away from the verbal and textual toward the visual, which has taken place since the advent of photography and cinema in the late 19th century, through the birth of television, to the present proliferation of digital media worldwide. We will consider the critical practices of looking, historicizing and interpreting that have accompanied this ‘visual turn’. Our readings will primarily address the theoretical foundations of the study of visual culture, which is understood to incorporate a variety of visual media and visual technologies: painting and sculpture, scientific imagery, material culture, the internet. If everything can be visual culture, what remains of traditional notions of medium specificity? What critical tools must be invented to analyze visual events from a visual cultural perspective? The relationship between the visual arts and visual media, especially with respect to the ‘global’ contemporary visual landscape, will be a focus of this course.

Building upon concepts introduced in Sophomore Studio I, this course offers an in-depth exploration of fine arts media through process-driven and research-oriented studio practices. Students advance their understanding of material inquiry and sustained artistic investigation, working through assignments conceived as interconnected contexts rather than isolated projects.
The course emphasizes the development of a cohesive body of work over the semester, allowing ideas, materials, and forms to evolve through repetition, revision, and critical reflection. Students engage in both short-term experimentation and long-term research, learning to revisit, transform, and challenge their work across different stages.
Through continued studio production, theoretical research, artistic references, presentations, and critiques, students deepen their conceptual and technical engagement while developing the language to articulate their processes, work, and ideas using
references, keywords, and reflective analysis, demonstrating a maturing understanding of studio practice. The course establishes an understanding of creative practice as an extended, iterative process, preparing students for increasingly independent and ambitious studio work in their continued studies.

Prerequisites: Foundation Core studios/2D Studio 1

Following the first semester’s discussions on independent practice, the spring semester will focus on strengthening students’ personal artistic language and ability to locate and isolate relevant research topics either through intuitive, logical or thematic thinking.
