Art and Design (Fine Art)

Assessment

Component 01 (H601/01) A coursework portfolio exploring Fine Art, based upon themes developed from a range of starting points. The Personal Investigation has two integrated elements: a portfolio of practical work and a related study, exploring context. Students will produce two elements: (i) a portfolio of practical work showing their personal response to a starting point, brief, scenario or stimulus, devised and provided by a combination of the students’ interests guided by the department; (ii) a related study - an extended response (minimum of 1000 words). Component 2 (H601/02) The externally set assignment incorporates two major elements: supporting studies and practical work. After a period of preparation, students have 15 hours of controlled time to develop their ideas into a final realisation. The early release paper will be issued on 1 February and will provide learners with a number of themes, each with a range of written and visual starting points, briefs and stimuli.
