This module aims to enable students to make complex and coherent photographic statements in the form of a published book artefact. Independent research and a self initiated project will form the basis of a body of work that could become part of a personal photographic practice. The module also aims to incorporate good book design, typography and visual narrative in the finished artefact. Informed debate around published works will be used to as a basis of critical and reflective self evaluation. This module is outward facing and students are encouraged to use online resources and to make the finished artefact available for public consumption and to take into account ethical and professional considerations.
