Description

This course will introduce students to basic concepts and skills in printmaking, developing a firm conceptual base from which they will expand in their continuing studies in the discipline. Students will be encouraged to understand the inter-relationships of form and content and the creative possibilities of various media. In line with current art practice expression is encouraged through the use of traditional and contemporary print media including etching, digital imaging, lithography, paper moulding, photocopying, relief and screen printing. Students will be expected to attain a basic competence in printmaking by the end of session. Studio health and safety and the appropriate handling and presentation of printworks will be covered.
