Orientation Course

A portfolio is a collection of works that you have created on your own initiative. These can be drawings, sketches, designs, models, images, photographs, paintings, videos, 3D, works in textile/wood/metal, etc. Unfinished work, notes and ideas can also be part of your portfolio. You can bring work that you've made at your school/art course/workshop too, as long as it conveys information about your personal insights and creative process. Show your sources of inspiration, artists and artworks you admire. Take photos of works you cannot bring with you to the academy and include them in your portfolio. Make sure to put together a varied portfolio, consisting of as many pieces as possible. The more information you provide about yourself and your passion, the better we can advise you and support you in finding what you're looking for in this programme.

Check out this page for tips on putting together a portfolio.
