Fine Art Photography

Stow Building, 23 students

Established in 1982, the Photography Programme at the GSA was the first programme of its kind in Europe to award a BA(Hons) Degree in Fine Art Photography and has produced successive generations of successful graduates, many of whom are now leaders in their field.

The programme is unusual within photographic education as it offers an opportunity to study photography as a specialist medium specifically within the context of contemporary fine art practice. It is a studio-based course that places a strong emphasis on the making of work. Given the prevalence of photographic images in our culture, the course aims to offer a critical platform from which fundamental questions about the nature of the photograph can be proposed and discussed.

One of my suspensions, a hand-built aluminium box, fitted with manipulated springs for sonic explorations and rigged with contact microphones, a 3.5 mm jack cable can be inserted to amplify. The box, which can be played and disfigured to alter the surrounding environments. Neutralise yourself in this space, and imagine an abundance of metallic trees, foliage and flowers. Inspired by my experiences of online chat forums, dominated by men who refused to answer my questions on how to make contact microphones. I went undercover with a fake ‘male’ name and sought the advice I needed to build these instruments. The listener is invited to sonically explore MY Lady Garden.
