Diploma Fine Arts

A strong foundation in art-making involves the acquisition and development of solid knowledge and skills in materials, accompanied by a reflective understanding of knowledge that is continually tested and extended through relevant practical application.

Steered with this belief, the teaching and learning approach is firmly practice-based and studio-driven, with an emphasis on the development of your creative processes and discoveries, which are also informed by art history and cultural theory, community engagement projects and an internship experience. You will be trained and equipped with the specific skills, techniques, aesthetics and knowledge of contextual issues that ground your chosen practice.

The programme provides exposure to various fine arts media such as painting, printmaking, sculpture, graphic novel and lens-based art. You have the opportunity to present your final work in your specialised area through a self-proposed project.

The programme also emphasises an interdisciplinary approach to learning, which allows you to discover and establish cross-disciplinary methodologies in the development of your artwork. As this diploma launches the preliminary stage of your artistic journey, you have the freedom to seek and hone your unique creative voice and to appreciate and practise the usage of materials and art processes confidently. You will be ready to build on these skills and understandings at higher and deeper levels after completing this programme.
