Syllabus
Syllabus
The CU is structured around three key moments: I - Systematization of ongoing research work: original works will be presented, analyzed, and discussed, revealing different strategies for collecting and organizing material and articulating various stages of the project's implementation (book, exhibition, website, etc.). Students will be challenged to identify and apply an organizational system to their research through a format appropriate to their objectives. II - An intensive and uninterrupted period of artistic residency, allowing students to gather, edit, and discuss the practical and theoretical work developed so far. The work in residence will be supervised by a guest tutor, who will guide and promote individual and group discussions. III - The final stage of the course aims to generate a visual/sensory materialization of the research. This may take various forms and aims to give unity and coherence to the work carried out.

Objectives
This curricular unit discusses the recent developments in the discourse of authors in the field of photography and visual construction, aiming at the following objectives: Acquire skills, methods, and evidence-based practices for organizing and planning work processes, from conception to visual materialization. Develop the ability to critically and constructively analyze images, experimenting with discourses that connect photography to other narrative, expressive, and formal dimensions. Consider the crossover of various media within contemporary artistic production, exploring their narrative and creative, as well as technical and conceptual options in image editing and documentation. This CU is a continuation of the CU Space, Place, and Perception: Criticism and Construction I and provides for an artistic residency aimed at visual/sensory materialization that communicates the creative process.
