Art

The BA (Hons) Art degree places students in a studio environment in the heart of Leeds, where they develop their own creative voice within a collaborative community of artists. Work is refined through new techniques, experimentation and sustained studio practice. The approach is practice-led throughout. Students study how art and commerce intersect, building an understanding of sustainable career pathways and of the role art plays within communities. Projects include self-directed work and collaborations with external partners. Students exhibit and sell their work in exhibitions and venues across Leeds, with access to studio space at the Mabgate Campus. These opportunities build the confidence to progress into professional practice and to engage with audiences directly. Graduates leave with a developed studio practice and experience of presenting work to the public.
