Taking the slogan “the Personal is Political” as its departure point, this multidisciplinary, 3 hour per week studio course offers a framework for students to create and contextualize personal imagery. Grounded in discussions of art history, material experimentation and peer critique, students will explore various ways to arrive at imagery that resonates with their conceptual and formal motives while unpacking the multivalences of its contexts. Students of all art backgrounds are welcome, as the class will also focus on practical strategies one can employ to sustain a creative practice.
