Fine Art Facilities
Introduction
All Fine Art students have dedicated studio spaces.
Facilities include:
Our excellent facilities include Sculpture workshops focusing on metal, wood, and ceramic workshops, alongside specialist equipment such as laser and water-jet cutters, VR, digital studios/photographic darkrooms, sound and video studios, and printmaking facilities.
The printmaking area is equipped for etching, linocut, monoprinting and silkscreen printing. The metal workshop has plasma cutters, welding and sandblasting equipment. The resin workshop includes a plaster and mould making area and uses industrial processes. The kilns in the ceramics studio are also used for fusing glass.
The water jet cutter allows for even greater exploration and experimentation with metal, stone, glass, wood and felt. As well as the life room, the department also includes large and flexible studios for all year groups.
We are unique in emphasising the importance of life drawing as part of the weekly schedules, learning not just about drawing but the importance of ‘looking’.
