Call for applications: Master in Medium- and Material Based Art

The MFA Programme in Medium- and Material Based Art is a multi-disciplinary, two-year fulltime study. The focus is on the development of each student’s individual art practice. The study emphasises art making and an innovative, critical attitude to medium and material-based art.

This is an intensive and demanding programme that stimulates and supports experimental and interdisciplinary approaches to the department’s unique combination of art and craft specialisations: Textile, Ceramics, Print and Drawing, Metal and Jewellery.

Each student is assigned a main tutor and a workspace at one of the four areas of specialisation.
