F402i Developing Practice: Independent Study
Professor Armon Means
Develop your practice or a specific project with more focus and rigor. This practice-based short course is intended for artists who want to focus studio time on a specific project or body of work with access to one-on-one critiques with the professor as well as peer discussions in the on-line studio. Week one will start with an initial digital studio visit. From there, your professor and peers will help guide and support you through the next two weeks of the course. This course is ideal for artists looking for critical discourse related to current bodies of work, including work-in-progress. The goal of discussions with your instructor and peers will be to enhance conceptual thinking and examine technique, potentially exposing the artist to viewpoints not initially considered in their studio or process.
All welcome, regardless of level of higher education or career stage. New course sessions post weekly on Mondays. Sessions meet in an online studio — a digital space that allows enrolled artists to come together and share their experiences. Live sessions and group video meetings may occur, but the majority of discussion will take place in the online studio, where artists may participate as their schedule allows, providing more scheduling freedom.
