The process of art making demands the acquisition and development of strong knowledge and skills in materials, accompanied by a reflexive understanding of this knowledge that is then continually tested and extended through relevant practical application.
Steered with this belief, the teaching and learning approach for the programme is grounded primarily on a practice-based methodology, with an emphasis on the development of your creative processes and discoveries that are honed by community engagement projects and a strong understanding in Art History and ideas. You will be trained and equipped with the specific skills, techniques, aesthetics and knowledge of historical issues associated with your discipline.
The programme provides you with the exposure to various Fine Arts media such as painting, printmaking, sculpture, graphic novel, and lens-based art. You will be given the opportunity to present your Final Project in your specialised area through a self-proposed brief.
The programme also emphasises an interdisciplinary approach to learning, which allows you to discover and establish cross-discipline methodologies in the development of your works. As it is the preliminary stage of your artistic journey, we consider this programme as crucial to allow you to search for a unique creative voice and to understand the use of materials and art processes confidently so that you can hone these skills at a higher level.
The Diploma is offered as a full time programme over three years and is divided into three levels, which correspond to each academic year of the programme. The academic year is divided into two semesters of thirteen weeks with two additional Assessment Weeks (Week 14 and 15). There will be 120 credits for each year of study and successful Diploma graduates must gain a total of 360 credits points to earn the Diploma.
Diploma programmes span three levels, where your technical and vocational skills as well as competence and knowledge will be developed to ensure you are industry-ready. Upon successful completion, you will be awarded with a Diploma certificate. Thereafter, exceptional Diploma graduates may apply to enter Level 2 of a LASALLE BA(Hons) programme within the same discipline.
