Ma print in Royal college of art

The programme positions Print as an expanded field. Students work from a range of positions, some working through print, making prints directly and others with print, using archives, broadcast media, collage and installation to explore the rich cultural legacies of printed matter. We aim to develop the potential of each student in ways appropriate to their concerns and consciously select an extremely diverse group of students to creatively expand the field.Seminars, visiting artists, publishing projects and the wider environment of the School, College and London itself help provide a critical framework to question the artist's relation to the histories and practices of craft, mechanical and digital (re)production. Print includes industrial production such as textiles, magazines, books, 3D printed human organs and prototypes alongside a rich history of craft processes which have been renewed by the advent of digital imaging. As the demand increases for all Fine Art practices to be replicated and transmitted digitally, the difference between hard copy and screen-based images grows ever more complex. We encourage you to explore how shifts in the registers of different media affect our lives and ways of communicating, placing debates within the program in a state of dynamic flux.The programme staff are all practicing artists working in a wide range of media who share a fascination with the centrality of print and replication to contemporary culture and artistic practice. You will have access to well-equipped technical workshops across the College and are given short inductions into self-selected print processes. However, the programme is not primarily about technical skills, but about how these are used to communicate and distribute images, ideas and understandings.

You're expected to have completed a BA degree. In recent years, students have come from fine art, printmaking, painting, sculpture, photo media, conservation, illustration, design, textiles, architecture and interactive arts courses. While many students enter the course after years of independent work, we also accept students directly from undergraduate courses.
