Printmaking is a specialist Visual Arts subject which aims for students to develop an understanding of advanced processes and practices in one area of print. Students will extend and develop their ideas through a range of tasks including research, drawing for print, sequential studies, subject matter exploration and finished prints. Students will demonstrate the ability to explore, develop, and resolve an idea using print processes and pictorial devices. The independent nature of this course is similar to tertiary education.
An achieved or better in any Level 2 Art Visual External Assessment Standard is recommended, or by approval from HOD.
