Expressive Arts Curriculum

The MA program in Expressive Arts (Water) explores the myriad ways of human creativity as an expression of the world we live in and our relationship to that world. The program nurtures the blossoming of the student's artistic work and living, enhancing or launching the student's professional life with a completed body of work that demonstrates an existing connection with society. The overall historical context of art in relationship to the Earth and society will be explored, with particular attention paid to art therapy, which emerged as a field during the middle of the twentieth century, offering healing through art to a population that has become alienated from the natural world and is now seeking reconnection.
