You will explore the possibilities of practice-based research, transforming your Major Project work into an academic abstract, visual essay and as a PhD proposal. We will consider alternative forms of writing in relation to practice and experimental approaches to sequencing. As a group you will unpick the thematic convergences and intersections within your major projects, supporting each other as a illustration researchers. We will investigate the different ways in which ‘the illustrator’ performs the unique role of knowledge activator. These experiences will be used to shape your own research event at Peckham Hub as part of the series of PDG events in November.

This is an opportunity for anyone interesting in pursuing a research degree or developing longer-form research led projects or residencies.

In this group you will explore what education means as a key part of your creative practice. Through a series of reflective workshops, live practical observations and group discussions you will use your major project as a starting point to develop and deliver a learning session in a placement or an open school event.

Education plays a big part in a range of creative practices. We will look at case studies of how different practitioners use education as an intention, context and application for projects. We will reflect on our own experiences of learning and share positive strategies, ask questions about what knowledge really is, who gets to teach and where learning can happen.

This is an opportunity for anyone interested in teaching, participation and engagement to get an experience ahead of graduating developing and delivering a live session.

Please bring in ONE example of work from your Final Major Project

You will work in your dissemination groups to curate and hang your work.

We will set up a display system for you to hang your work on the walls. There will also be vitrines to show 3D work.

Moving image will not be possible to show given the limitations of the space and the short time we have to install. If you have moving image work you may want to think about how you present this through print or via other means.

You will put together an industry standard book pitch from your final major project. This could be a comic, graphic novel, picture book, non fiction picture book, chapter book…or really any form of commercial publication! You will identify the market and audience for your book, as well as curating a list of appropriate publishers to send it out to.

You will plan and take part in an event, where your book pitches will be displayed, and you will be able invite members of the public and industry professionals.

The publishing PDG is suitable for any student whose final major project can or does take the form of a book with commercial publishing potential. It does not have to be finished, but there will not be enough time to create a project from scratch, so do not pick this group if your FMP is not appropriate.

The Cultural Institutions program aims to model some of the experiences of ‘artists residencies’ as a self-directed creator. You will extract themes, processes and research methods from your final major project and apply them to a self-initiated micro-residency in response to the local area surrounding the Quentin Blake Centre of Illustration in London. The work made during this time will enable you to highlight and articulate key threads that run through your practice, and to position yourself more succinctly within the art/ design/ cultural creation landscape.

Unlocking and demystifying application processes. You will be asked to research and analyse advertised residencies. Together we will combine, collate and share knowledge of where to find them and how to apply for them. You will be supported to put together an application for an established residency that aligns with your practice. There will also be space for critical examinations of residencies, looking at power dynamics, access, costs and expectations.

You are asked to view the idea of steering your practice via self-formed residencies as a radical act- through collaboration, exchange, bartering and skill sharing- with each other. These residencies will likely bend the edges of traditional concepts of an ‘artist’s residency’ and as a cohort you will conjure exciting ways to approach spaces and audiences and extract new research material.  This should better prepare you for future self-led initiatives as well as application-based opportunities.

# data[].attributes.body
We will explore the self publishing eco-system through an introduction to small scale, DIY publishing and distribution. You will develop your Major Project as a self-published book - an independently produced and distributed publication. Distribution involves disseminating information to an audience, facilitating the books reach through channels such as bookshops, fairs, galleries, libraries and alternative spaces.

You will take part in the Small Publishers Fair at Conway Hall in central London. SPF is a two day event that showcases and celebrates self-publishing, allowing you to present your final publication and engaging new audiences. Following this event you will produce a short video trailer to be shared with online audiences and to gain international visibility for the work.

As a self publisher you will need to adapt to several creative roles. You will direct the design, editing, printing and dissemination of your publication.

# data[].attributes.body
The Collective Space Dissemination Group focuses on how you can develop your individual practice through commerce, collaboration and event-making. You will create an edition from your major project alongside a collaborative artwork that experiments with shared making (for example, a textile piece). Both will be launched and sold at a public event that you help design and organise. The format is open to your imagination—ranging from a feast to a workshop, exhibition, or protest—and you are encouraged to think playfully and experimentally about how to bring your vision to life.

This group is ideal for students interested in developing prints and artist editions, experimenting with self-publishing, and using selling and dissemination as part of their creative practice. You will explore how illustrators are increasingly bypassing traditional routes by releasing accessible artworks, editions, and self-publishing, and using sales as a way to build audiences. Throughout the module, you will consider how commerce can function as a creative tool: shaping your professional practice, supporting independent modes of production, and connecting your work directly with the public.
