What Do Our Alumni Say?
My name is Cornelia and I’m from Latvia. I’m studying fine art with Immerse. I’ve really enjoyed meeting new people and visiting museums and galleries. At first I was worried I wouldn’t make friends or understand everything, but I’ve made some great friends and I’m learning so much. Studying fine art here has really helped me express myself through my artwork.
It’s helped build my confidence and improve my skills. I’m able to show my emotions and inner self through my art now. This program has really opened my eyes to new possibilities for my future career. I’m so thankful for this opportunity to study what I’m passionate about. It’s been an amazing experience so far.

Immerse™ Fine Art Sample Modules
To see how the programme is structured, view the Career Insights timetable.
Module 1 - Art & Ideas
This module allows you to understand the broad framework and “big picture” of art history, as you explore movements that have influenced art over time such as Classical Culture, Religion, the Enlightenment Period, Romanticism, Post-Colonialism as well as scholarly personalities such as Plato, Aquinas, Darwin, Freud and Marx. By the end of this unit, you will have formed a critical understanding of how art has developed over time and the key influences that have shaped and transformed it.
Module 2 - Modernist & Post-Modernist Art
This module explores the histories of contemporary artworks while tracing their lineage through the range of experimental practices from Modernism to Post-Modernism. We’ll take a look at some of the most influential artists of the modernist and postmodern eras and evaluate both their influence and opportunities in the world of art.
Module 3 - Visual Analysis
In this module, we will introduce different methods of visual analysis and interpretation. We will also look at methods for interpreting art, culture, and cultural products. Part of our inquiry may include a look at semiotics, iconography/iconology, gender, Marxism, and non-European aesthetic systems, as methods of analysing visual analysis.
Module 4 - Contemporary Issues
This module offers an opportunity for participants to explore a debate within the visual arts on personal and individual relevance. We will explore current issues in the world of fine art and form an understanding of them while learning to articulate ideas effectively.
Module 5 - Photography
In this module, you’ll learn how to improve your creative vision by understanding the importance of scene elements such as light, colour, and texture and identifying how you can use them to improve your photography. You will engage with a range of photography techniques as well as examine professional works and offer an informed analysis of the techniques being applied.
Module 6 - Sculpting
You will have the opportunity to learn hands-on techniques in sculpting, exploring the Sinclair Method, as well as professional sculpture skills and techniques for realist sculpture. You will learn the professional way to create a beautifully proportioned figure armature, the foundation of every good sculpture.
Module 7 - Drawing & Painting
You will refine your technique and express your creative vision during this module. Through practical exercises and constructive support, this part of the course empowers you to gain and develop artistic skills, letting your creativity flourish. Study and experiment with a variety of exciting materials, mediums and topics, working on paintings, prints and drawings of landscapes, interiors, figures and animals.
Module 8 - Installation Art
Installation artworks, sometimes described as ‘environments’, often occupy an entire room or gallery space that the spectator has to walk through in order to engage fully with the art. Some installations, however, are designed simply to be walked around and contemplated, or are so fragile that they can only be viewed from a doorway, or one end of a room. In this part of the course, we will explore a broad range of immersive installations in and around London. By the end of this module, you will have a strong understanding of what installations are and begin to develop your own ideas of installation art.
