Program details

Overview

This PhD in Fine Art allows research into painting, drawing, sculpture, new media and socially engaged practice, or into projects that cross disciplines. Projects are shaped around the candidate's own practice and research interests. Candidates are usually supervised by two academics, and the second supervisor may come from another department to suit the project. Past projects have explored new materialism, the links between drawing and biomedical imaging, therapeutic landscapes and creative communities online. Supervision aims to give focused critical feedback, and candidates gain encouragement throughout the programme as their practice develops. Graduates may pursue careers in artistic practice, research, teaching and cultural organisations. The experience of sustained research and critical reflection prepares graduates for academic posts, curatorial work and leading creative projects.
