Photography 2B FSH215

Introduction

Photography 2B will diversify and broaden your capacity to understand and engage with the methodologies and processes associated with contemporary photographic practice in the expanded field. Through group and individual tasks, you will develop your ability to experiment with aspects of the photographic medium, iterative processes and idea development. The emphasis in this semester is on exploring the expressive potential of image assemblies and understanding the ways in which these structures generate meaning. Through the guidance of staff, students are encouraged to develop independent learning (and thinking) strategies towards the development of individual expression and self- directed learning. Regular group critiques and individual consultation with the lecturer foster the exchange of ideas and provide feedback on your progress.
