In printmaking, the student is asked to apply the ideas and skills acquired in the Foundation year from drawing, design and art history. Exposure to a variety of methods of printmaking encourages students to further develop visual thinking and expression with clarity, effectiveness and quality.
Emphasis is placed on originality of idea, development through drawing, construction issues, the use of equipment and materials, revision or modification inherent to the process approach and finally, a resolution of all the aspects evidenced in the process. Individual growth, the realization of inner talents, knowledge of their capacity and the importance of the search are the objectives presented to the student in printmaking.
