Your portfolio is a visual statement it says a lot about an applicant and their practice. The advice below is not meant to be restrictive but rather offers some simple advice to help you prepare for your interview.

What we like to see
We would like to see work that demonstrates your suitability to study a multi-discipline Fine Art degree. Therefore, this can include: paintings, drawings, photographs, multimedia, 3D work. We would also like to see your passion for particular examples of contemporary fine art and historical practice. Your portfolio might show a focus on one particular medium such as painting or photography, or contain a wide range of disciplines such as printmaking, sculpture or video and performance. This will be dependent on your personal interests and the facilities available to you at your school or college. The nature of Fine Art means that we will be pleased if you show a willingness to experiment.

Show how you generate ideas & research
Your sketchbooks and journals will hopefully display your eagerness to try out ideas and show us which artists and exhibitions you have enjoyed and been influenced by.

Drawing
Drawing is a great way to show that you have good hand to eye coordination and that you can plan and visualise your concepts.

Our school engages with a wide range of partners working across each creative sub-sector to ensure that teaching and learning are in line with the latest developments in and requirements of industry, including:
