In this course students will create new works that engage ideas of social, racial, and climate justice as central to our discussion and visual inquiry. Through artist research, short readings and prompts, students will use drawing as an expansive medium to conceptualize and relate their ideas. This course is experimental in nature and will have no defined emphasis on traditional drawing techniques, instead we will take an expanded/interdisciplinary media approach to drawing, to explore how critical questions of social justice can be developed into impactful artworks.
