Curriculum content (class content):

The curriculum content concerns both theoretical and practical issues, where the program focuses on the recognition of own artistic predilections and the ability to adequately use the artistic medium coherent with the message. Students operate in the intermedia space of expression, searching for content in the dialogue of various means of expression.
Prepared artistic proposals are discussed in the group and analyzed in the perception process of other class participants.

The aim of the curriculum is to prepare students thoroughly to independently define an artistic concept expressed through a coherent media or artistic medium. Practical activities should be based on knowledge of different techniques and technologies used in artistic expression (materials and devices). Issues related to the specificity of the medium used and its system of meanings and symbols should allow students to creatively convey individual content through created actions.
The master's thesis should be the culmination of the work supported by the knowledge of culture together with selected elements of scientific and technical knowledge gained in class.

Topics to be realized in the studio:
- visual arts media as carriers of information,
- using one's own individuality in forming artistic message,
- reflecting on one's predilection when choosing the medium of artistic expression,
- presentation of one's own concept based on self-analysis taking into account the socio-cultural context. Self-analysis (semesters I - II of the degree programme):
