Master of Arts - Fine Art

The interdisciplinary nature of the programme enables students to experiment, engage and explore traditional and new media methods of practice to best envision students' ideas. Discussion and critique of key theoretical practices is explicitly aligned to their subject interest.

This Teesside University programme fosters an active approach to studio practice by offering open access to painting and sculpture studios; technical materials workshops (incorporating 3D printing and welding); lens-based media (photography darkrooms and green screen media); recording studios; printmaking, bookbinding and publishing. Independent studios are allocated from the outset of the programme and individual and small-group tutorials help students consider their practice. Learning is facilitated by staff members who are experts in the field towards students' individual goals. These might take either a studio or more theoretical, curatorial, or contextual tract depending on their own desires and ambitions.
