Fine Art & Design – Embroidered Textile Design

This 22 week course offers students an opportunity to develop technical and design skills and to expand their knowledge of contemporary embroidery. Practice based tutorials and demonstrations will consider embroidery techniques, their application and exploration. Throughout the course tutors will, through individual tutorials and structured presentations, provide an overview of embroidery from a historical and contemporary perspective placing it within the context of art and design practice. Students will be encouraged to contextualise their own work within the broader context of embroidery by referencing other artists and designers.
