​
Experimental Photography & Cyanotype Photo
The course guides students from creating individual images to developing series-based thinking, with the option to expand works into experimental installations.
Experimental photography has clear educational and artistic value. International art schools and high-level art competitions increasingly value students’ independent thinking, project-based awareness, and depth of understanding of their chosen medium. Experimental photography works are particularly effective in demonstrating a student’s creative process and artistic maturity within a portfolio, and are highly beneficial for applications in photography, contemporary art, design, and interdisciplinary fields. ​​
