Master of Visual Arts

Queensland College of Art

The Master of Visual Arts degree is suited to both artists who want to deepen their understanding of the contemporary art world, as well as graduates who are changing disciplines and want to pursue and expand their artistic and creative capabilities. You will extend on and refine your visual literacy skills and your ability to critically analyse artworks and understand key concepts in contemporary visual art. The degree encourages you to explore ideas in contemporary visual culture and develop your studio art practice so you can produce a significant body of work for exhibition. By joining a community of expert art practitioners you will be encouraged to experiment and stretch the boundaries of innovation across a broad range of media, including drawing, jewellery, painting, photography, print-making and sculpture.Learning within the visual arts is situated around work integrated learning. From the commencement of the program until graduation, students work and practice as visual artists. It is expected they will seek commissions and grants, publish their work through exhibitions and work out of personal studios.
