Artistic Expression Laboratory

• ApresentaçãoPresentation

  The course combines practical experimentation and critical reflection on artistic materials and techniques, fostering an integrated and informed practice within the field of contemporary art.
• ProgramaProgramme

  - Exercises for technical and material mastery, using different types of artistic materials and techniques. - Exploration of drawing and painting techniques such as charcoal, pencil, watercolor, and acrylic, to develop technical mastery. - Exercises in experimentation with unconventional materials and techniques, such as resins, fabrics, and metals. - Group discussion exercises and critical analysis of works, to assess the impact and effectiveness of different techniques and materials. - Exercises aimed at integrating knowledge and skills acquired in other curricular units. - Exercises in the combination and experimentation of materials and techniques, promoting an experimental approach. - Exercises involving the recording of the creative process and critical reflection activities on the selection and application of materials and techniques.
• ObjectivosObjectives

  This theoretical-practical course unit aims to: - Acquire practical mastery of a diverse range of artistic techniques and materials, from the most traditional to the most innovative. - Foster a deep understanding of the material and technical processes underlying artistic creation. - Encourage experimentation as a means of discovering new expressive and technical possibilities. - Promote the integration of knowledge and skills acquired in other course units for the development of a cohesive and informed artistic practice. - Stimulate critical reflection on the use of different materials and techniques, evaluating their impact and relevance in different artistic projects and within the contemporary artistic context. The teaching method combines practical instruction, demonstrations, and group discussions, aligning with the learning objectives through a practical and experimental approach.

• MetodologiaMethodology

  The teaching methodologies employed are a blend of hands-on instruction, demonstrations, and group discussions. This methodological framework was designed to maximize effectiveness in achieving the learning outcomes of the course: . Laboratory practical classes are the primary mode of instruction, allowing students to directly experiment with different materials and techniques. . Demonstrations are used to introduce new techniques and materials, presenting students with practical examples and tutorial guidance. . Group discussions are encouraged to foster a forum for critical reflection and the analysis of works, allowing students to consolidate their theoretical understanding and provide constructive criticism of their own work and that of others. . Individual and group tasks are structured to promote autonomy in artistic research and collaborative skills. . Evaluation is conducted through continuous observation of student progress.
