In Master of Arts in Fine Art with a specialization in Photography, students will study an innovative curriculum alongside a purposefully small group of peers, uniquely designed to offer critical, collaborative and personal approaches to photography in contemporary cultural contexts. A combined focus on personal work, professional practice, and critical research will maximise students' creative outputs, and contextualise photography as an artistic discipline.
Students will gain knowledge and insights into contemporary arts practice and debates, taught by a diverse team of award-winning photographers and leading academics in the field. This, and the extensive range of creative resources available across the City Campus, will equip students to work at a professional level, plugging into the contemporary discourse of regional, national, and international communities.
Whether students are a recently qualified arts graduate, or a well-established professional looking to develop yourself academically, this course offers everything the students need to push their practice to the next level.
Students will be perfectly placed studying in Bristol, a socially and politically progressive city, widely recognised as one of the most creatively influential settings in the UK. Here they will discover a range of galleries, artists' groups and studios plus art projects involving students and graduates.
MA Fine Art: Photography is based on Bristol's historic harbourside at Arnolfini. Situated above this internationally renowned centre for contemporary art students will be at the heart of Bristol's creative and cultural community, with access to UWE Bristol's City Campus and all it has to offer. Here, they’ll develop their skills and knowledge alongside like-minded creative talent.
