In the MA year Photography, you’ll take one step further in the development of your artistic identity. Throughout the year you’ll work on a MA project, guided by two mentors who will help you to broaden and enrich your horizons. You’ll not only realise an artistic project but also write a thesis in which you reflect on your artistic practice.
You, your Master thesis and photography
Alongside your artistic research, you’ll intensively follow theoretical seminars, visit exhibitions and take part in lectures and workshops. Through portfolio viewings with nationally and internationally recognised artists, art critics and curators you’ll discover new perspectives. In preparation for the master exhibition – which you organise together with fellow students off-campus – you’llshow your work to a wider public in an intermediate exhibition at the Recyclart art centre in Brussels.
Your MA thesis represents an important step in your artistic quest and in the development of your visual language. It is the starting capital with which you’ll launch yourself on the path of contemporary (art) reality.
Evolving insight
Curiosity, independent initiative and a passion for experimentation drive your artistic inquiry. You’ll discover new strategies and unique methods. By openly communicating about evolutions and doubts during your work process, you’ll bring your projects to a successful conclusion.
In Brussels, in the middle of the world
Students of the MA Photography come from all corners of the globe. In the dynamic context of Brussels, this diversity creates new avenues of thought and leads to a challenging artistic process. Surrounded by students from Belgium and abroad you’ll be confronted by other realities that shift your boundaries. The international character of the master is also felt during the final master exhibition when an external and partly international jury will judge your work.
