Content
This unit introduces students to advanced principles of disciplinary practice in either photography, dance, drama and visual arts. Students will undertake an independent studio practice approach to create a group or individual work in their discipline and engage with crits and work-in-progress showings to give and receive feedback, and to progress their creative work. This unit supports students to be increasingly autonomous learners. The unit culminates within an exhibition/performance showcase that will be produced by students in ACA397.
