In the "Questioning" module, the objectives centre on refining your studio painting practice by embedding it within dynamic philosophical debates and cultural discussions on the nature of painting. Through conceptual risk-taking and material experiments that push the boundaries of conventional techniques, it aims to challenge habitual technical approaches and aesthetic assumptions. Additionally, the module seeks to cultivate a language for dissecting painting's connection to personal and cultural identities, history, politics, environments, and current societal issues. As part of this exploration, we will place a particular emphasis on strengthening your analytical writing, verbal articulation, and critical discussion skills. These skills will serve as a robust foundation for engaging in painting, fostering a nuanced and informed approach to your evolving artistic practice.
