In this course, SPI: Space, Content, Action, you will experiment with new methods of production, such as kinetic structures, digital technologies and their interface with innovative applications of traditional modes of production. The course encourages an integration of these technical fabrication skills with more informal approaches to studio production, such as the assemblage of manipulated found objects. You will research in depth your responses to a variety of interpretive project briefs that address the cross cultural and intrapersonal as well temporal phenomena, exploring improvisation, dynamic movement and action based art to expand your practice. The diversity of possible production methods and the conceptual content provides a diagnostic tool to determine the possible direction of your future practice. An active engagement in collaborative activities and discourse, rigorous feedback of work in progress, increases your ability to resolve your artworks' conceptual and perceptual coherence.

This course relates to companion courses in the Sculpture Performance & Installation Stream by providing a mixed media skills base in association with other BFA Year 2 courses in preparation for studies in Year 3.
