The purpose of this studio course is to provide a practice-based learning environment with a focus on Art & Text. Students will explore how text operates within contemporary visual culture and their own art practices. The course offers a framework for examining diverse approaches to text in art, including text-as-image, artworks utilizing the book form, and projects that employ alternative methods of distribution, such as libraries, online databases, hypertext experiments, sound, and writing-based art practices. Through independent text-based art projects, students will engage deeply with text in their work while critically considering current discourse and production within the field.
