NEED TO DIVIDE INTO 1 YEAR, 3 YEARS, 5 YEARS ETC....Profile Katie Venner-Woodbridge (b.1982, London, U.K.) is an interdisciplinary artist living and working in Dubai, U.A.E. She graduated with a BA(hons) in Textile Design, followed by a PGCE in Arts Education and is currently completing her MA in Fine Art. Venner-Woodbridge’s work explores the ways in which pattern and routine facilitate human life, but also the ways in which breaking sequences and systems can provide both opportunity or discontent. It challenges the boundaries between beauty and awkwardness, and between manageable quiet spaces and the uncomfortable containment of chaos. Venner-Woodbridge is a member at Tashkeel, Dubai, participated in Campus Art Dubai 2017-2018 and exhibited in various group shows in both the U.K and U.A.E.Personal DevelopmentAction points before submission:Business card - important for networking in Gulf region.CV – relevant to art http://katievenner-woodbridge.com/pagecv/Website – katievennerwoodbridge.comSocial media links:Instagram used most often and most comfortable with.Facebook used to share articles occasionally, and Instagram posts are shared automatically.Pinterest used for ideas and resources.

Explore research further and make it more specific to arts, consider making it more focused; a smaller question. Contact tutor on course as she has offered mentorship regarding future application. Feedback has already been very promising and was considered for supervising team. PHD may be a better option, as it is research heavy and not practice based. Prof doc – what’s the purpose? What will it give you? Year 3 contextual study will become proposal.Reflection Don't lose myself in the list of accomplishments or things to do.
