Examine your practice in relation to the constantly evolving nature of the subject globally and culturally

Celebrate the role that illustration plays within a global context and immerse yourself in the diversity of practice that increasingly defines the subject in the 21st century.  

Connect, engage and network with your peers on a global level and explore innovative approaches to visual communication. Push creative boundaries and both question and influence new thinking on the subject. 

You will: 

• Innovate within the field of illustration and actively contribute to the ongoing evolution of illustration practice as a form of visual communication 

• Join an illustration community that has a long history and reputation at Falmouth, with many graduates being internationally recognised for their work 
• Work towards becoming successfully embedded and connected within the wider visual communication industry.

This MA is designed to help illustrators with well-versed practical, drawing, and mark-making skills further develop their output.

Whether you’ve recently earned an undergraduate degree in Illustration or a related discipline, or if you’re an established illustrator looking to change the direction of your practice, our course can support you in realising your creative and professional goals.
