Course Content
It includes the acquisition and learning of visual sensitivity and two- and three-dimensional design skills by understanding the design principles, the learning of visual expression skills by using design elements efficiently, and the understanding of the subjects discussed in the light of design principles and elements, while maintaining familiarity with the materials and techniques used in design education.
Objectives of the Course
To teach the basic elements and principles of plastic arts based on observation, application and parts, visual thinking logic, selective attention and perceived perception, knowledge, power and abstraction; We work to enable them to develop their original language of expression in a free environment and to provide them with the necessary experience and confidence based primarily on imagination and creativity.
