Drawing and Design: Seeing, Thinking, Understanding - BENV2303 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Description This course involves investigation into the basic technical, aesthetic and conceptual aspects of drawing. The philosophy of the course is that drawing is a skill that is both visual and experiential, which evokes through practice - insights, associations and resonances - indicating each student's individual understanding of both the objective world and the world of their imagination. The course teaches basic drawing skills - how to see, think and respond through drawing to a variety of visual problems. This is a studio-based subject involving intensive, practical, hands-on exercises taught simultaneously with visual theory. Ultimately I seek to expand each student's visual vocabulary, aesthetic consciousness and creativity through an interwoven series of exercises based on important moments in 20th century architectural, design and visual history.
