Because design, as a professional activity, is interdisciplinary by nature, the Art + Design curriculum offers an educational structure that creates a new art and design professional: one for whom artistic and practical talents are developed as different expressions of one's potentiality.
An artist-designer is a creative practitioner and image-maker who brings form to emotions and ideas. There is, however, a difference between a traditional artist and an artist-designer: the artist-designer's visual message does not have to be personal, as they work for another, giving form to expressions or ideas of their client. In short, the artist-designer is a visual translator.
