This module encourages you to extend your knowledge beyond that of HE4 and deepen your understanding of the critical debates relevant to contemporary practice, which affect our readings of textiles and surface design. Through a series of lectures, seminars and workshops you will explore the meanings, functions and intentions of practice within a dynamic set of theoretical considerations. You will be encouraged to explore a variety of related and interrelated exhibitions, events and undertake visits to galleries, museums and archives as part of this module and during independent study time. This module aims to encourage depth of enquiry, to cultivate contemporary research and writing practice, across various academic channels. Research and study skills are an integral part of the module and workshops will focus on developing academic practice. Assessed components encourage you to develop and consolidate knowledge, to engage in extended research and make links between and across fields of practice.
