Credit points: 03
Year: 2016
Student Contribution Band: Band 1
Administered by: College of Arts, Society & Education

Art exists in a range of environments; built, natural and virtual. This subject provides students with a thorough grounding in relation to the ways in which artists engage with their environments, including an investigation of the conceptual, theoretical, ideological or metaphysical underpinnings. An environmental field trip to a tropical north location provides students with an immersion and art creation experience that links theory with practice.
