FieldWorks is Cow House Studios’ gap year art program designed to give students ages 18 to 22 an opportunity to make new artwork in a remarkable location while being challenged to approach their creative practice from new perspectives. Workshops, talks, and engaged discussions led by prominent practitioners are organized to provoke new avenues for thought and production among these young aspiring artists.

Curriculum

The core of FieldWorks curriculum is meaningful, uninterrupted time in the studio and its scenic surroundings drawing, painting, making photographs or videos, collecting, writing, and reading. Days are punctuated by immediate feedback from instructors and peers, accelerating the creative process, whereby single days can yield an exceptional amount of productivity.

While open-ended studio time is essential, we also value practiced craft. In addition to independent studio practice, a series of workshops presenting new material possibilities take place daily.

The third crucial component of one of our Gap Year Art Programs is travel. Ireland has a vibrant and diverse creative community.
