This term will focus on the students initiating either a self-sustained long term project (single project or thematic series) interspersed with group discussion, 1-1 tutorials, and simultaneously continuing a collaborative group project.
Midway through the term we will have a visiting speaker (Margarita Gluzberg) who will discuss their practice and relationship to drawing.
The structure of the day will consist of mornings spent initially discussing the group sketchbook (collaborative project) and weekly assignments. Followed by alternating between 1:1 tutorials & Breakfast Tutorials (group discussion) focusing on an individual students work. Students who had previously taken The Bigger Picture class will be familiar with this structure.
