Brief description of the Unit

Research Project B is the second in a sequence of two courses devoted to the development and production of a body of creative practical works of art, design or performance. Students develop their practice led research proposal in consultation with their studio supervisor and then work independently in a studio setting to realise their goals. Weekly consultations with studio supervisors and discussions with fellow students are an important part of this process and students will produce resolved creative artwork which is presented in the form of an exhibition or performance.

Unit Content:

Creative practice at Honours level is research oriented and therefore develops from the initial research proposal through in depth consultation and discussion with a supervisor and the students peers. Therefore, while each students research project is individual, this course utilises a seminar approach to nurture, challenge and foster a research culture appropriate to creative arts practice. Within this second semester course, the practice-led research trajectory will be firmly established and students will focus on producing works to a higher standard. Weekly consultations with the studio supervisor will continue to guide this process culminating in the presentation of the creative outcomes in the form of an exhibition, performance or creative writing.
