The dance pathway of our performance and visual arts programme offers a unique opportunity to develop your interest in performance alongside visual art practice through practical and theoretical investigations.
The course encourages independent and collaborative working methods and the exploration of varied contexts for the dissemination of artistic activity.
Course structure
Year 1 introduces and investigates performance and visual art language and practice through visual, movement and aural studies. Practical experimentation in movement, music, live performance, drawing, photography, video, sound, and site-specific performance offers a year of orientation.
Technical inductions provide a skills base from which creative work is developed. Theoretical research supports practical investigations and provides a broad cultural and historical mapping of performance and visual art.
Year 2 develops performance and investigates installation practices and visual art practice, and its documentation through proposals and presentation. Interdisciplinary work is developed through an exploration of forms, contexts and audience. Professional practice is supported by the opportunity to present work in a public context, while extension studies enable students to study other arts-related topics.
Theoretical studies develop cultural and historical knowledge and provide the opportunity to develop critical and analytical skills.
Year 3 develops independent practice through the preparation and documentation of an individual practical project informed by a written research project. Final degree work includes performance, exhibition or site-specific presentations. Professional practice studies support students in identifying possible arts-related career paths.
Areas of study
The dance pathway combines movement and visual studies focusing on the body as a site and language of investigation and expression. It considers the creative possibilities of combining these elements through experimentation to produce interdisciplinary forms, which include video dance, installation practices, live performance, live art, photographic and movement practices, still and moving image, drawing, documentation practices and site-specific practices.
