Class Project Work / Dissertation: Immersion and Creation

As the culmination of a two-year program, this course aims to produce a coherent and distinctive body of work that is intellectually informed and contextualized, allowing for all kinds of experimental and radical proposals. The lessons learned from the rest of the curriculum, as well as successes and failures, will finally come together in the construction and development of a project.    The project to be developed during this course may have been started previously. However, it is during the course of this course that it must be developed, prepared to be tested at the time of exhibition, with an emphasis on the synthesis and resolution of the practice, preparing students for their future careers as photographers, visual artists, and/or researchers.
