Humanities Arts Cultural Stu 0281 - Conjuring. Marking. Painting.-Time

Light. Darks. Colors. Textures-they don't just touch, they dance in a ritual to reveal themselves. This studio course is structured to be an artistic and intellectual exploration on how painting (formally and expansively) can hold time whether that be metaphorically, conceptually or within the art-making process itself. By pairing technical exercises to conceptual ideas and explorations, we will consider and explore time as a material, duration, and repetition. Through readings, discussions, class presentations, haiku writing, and a lot of making (including plein-air, collage, and a semester long subject matter of choice), students will engage with a constellation of perspectives and moments in time to further develop language and create a body of work that reflects on their own interest and understanding of time while thinking about painting expansively. Keywords: Painting, Studio Art, Time, Cyclical, Collage
