In the context of this module, students pursue build upon their experience in ARM0130 Portfolio and exhibition development in AHM0160 Exhibition 1. In contrast to the Part 1 experience, students produce a body of work in a limited time frame expressly for exhibition and the gallery context. The body of work will of necessarily be smaller in quantity than that produced in the context of the first exhibition. However, that body should be characterised by a greater sense of resolution in terms of refining the research problem and aesthetic dimensions of the work. Students pursue a self-initiated, and self-directed programme of research-based study in Fine Art. In contrast to Exhibition 1, students take far more responsibility for the progression and conclusion of the body of work. Students are expected to extend their previous experience and practice by defining further a clear subject matter or field of action, refining a knowledge of technical, stylistic, theoretical, and historical frameworks relevant to their work; enhancing their capacity to be productive and to work at an appropriate pace consistently and energetically over a shorter period of time; and to become confident in justifying and articulating their practice in both writing and orally. Students will also be expected to solidly establish relevant criteria in order to make discriminating judgements about their work. In these ways, the module is conceived as a means of instilling standards and strategies of professional Fine Art practice.
