VAFAS1011 TWO DIMENSIONAL STUDIO ART PRACTICE
This course provides grounding in fundamental aspects of visual arts practice and theory, and promotes the importance of individual aptitudes and interests. Students will develop skills in, and understanding of visual expression through experimentation with media and processes, and through the development of skills in critical thinking and evaluation. Introduction to 2D Studio Art Practice is structured around thematic projects. These will initiate a range of experimental and interpretative visual investigations utilising such applications as painting, mono-printing and collage. The learning process will be supported by visits to art galleries/artists studios, public, private and alternative exhibition spaces.
Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) unit fee
A Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) is one that is subsidised by the Australian Government, which means students only pay the student contribution amount of the tuition fee. CSPs are only available to eligible domestic students.
The student contribution amount depends on the unit and how much funding the Government provides. Each unit is classified into a band based on its discipline (which may be different to your overall course discipline).
2025 student contribution amount: $2,329
2025 grandfathered student contribution amount (for students who commenced before 1 Jan 2021*): $1,993
* If you are a continuing student (who commenced your course before 1 January 2021) you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.
