The ‘Experimental Drawing’ course is designed to introduce the experience of creatively exploring experimental materials, processes, methods and ideas in contemporary drawing practice. Particular emphasis is given to drawing as discovery, testing and its expanding vocabulary, its signs and symbols, its gestures and marks, its pigments, supports and tools, and developing a range of new skills by working with different subjects, processes, tools and media.

You will be encouraged to develop an individually conceived art practice that experiments with materials, processes, technologies and formats that can contribute to a broadened understanding of drawing as a discipline. Individual projects will seek to explore what drawing is and does across a range of disciplines and over a broad historical period. Extensive experimentation in problem solving through individual exploration is emphasized.
