Workshops and study environment on Vasagatan

On Vasagatan, workshops, studios and shared equipment support students in Fine Art, Photography and Film. Some facilities are shared across programmes, while others are dedicated studios or individual study spaces. Technical staff support artistic work through introductions, guidance and the safe, informed use of equipment as part of teaching and production.

Fine Art

Fine Art students work in studios and workshops connected to sculpture, construction and material-based processes, including wood and metal. The environment supports artistic exploration, experimentation and individual practice. Typical work ranges from testing materials and techniques to developing and finishing sculptural or construction-based projects.

Film students work with moving image, sound and cinematic processes across teaching spaces, studios and technical facilities. The environment includes film and sound studios, editing facilities and screening spaces that support different stages of the filmmaking process. Work often moves from production to editing and sound work, and on to screening and presentation.
