Art & Design: Textiles (AS)

UPDATED 20150925 12:15:08

We aim to provide and portray a lively, challenging and happy environment in which students can learn and explore, where students are encouraged to break new boundaries in terms of their own personal development. The department encourages diversity and celebrates other cultures. Most of the teaching is initially group based but emphasis is placed on weekly one-to-one discussion with staff, allowing us to give pertinent direction and guidance in the use of media and resources. Students will learn how to convey and interpret ideas, feelings and meanings into their Textile Design work, recording experiences and observations mainly in visual form. Students will explore, discuss and evaluate images, objects and artefacts and use their understanding to develop and realise the full potential of their ideas through Textile Design work. Students will be encouraged to participate in all aspects of Textile such as visits to Art Galleries, Museums and Exhibitions. All work will be assessed against the AQA Art and Design (Textile Design) Criteria.
