Course Summary
In this course, you will develop skills of illustrating, translating and transforming objects [your subjects] through drawing. Based in an understanding of drawing as an essential generative activity that integrates perception, cognition and action, you will engage drawing as a primary means of describing forms, ideas and experiences across a range of modes. You will you learn aspects of drawing including rendering by hand, technical drawing as translation between 3D and 2D, and collaborative drawing machines. Objectives are to extend your skills to transform ideas across mediums and to support and complement your specialisation area. You will examine concepts of communication and authorship within art practice leading to a deeper understanding of relations between making and meaning. Projects will encourage processes of documentation and reflection to inform and extend your studio work.
