In the Photography Department, keeping up with the fields of photography which is continuously expanding nowadays, it is our purpose to make each student become an expert who can keep an eye on the course after graduation. After acquiring basic techniques and knowledge to correspond to diverse photographic expressions, students proceed to creative activities according to their individual characters and artistic sensitivities. The Photography Department is characterized by the fact that its faculty and students work together to look for creative directions to draw out students’ latent abilities to the full.

Students explore potentials of photographic expressions freely with perfect ease.

Students pursue photography as fine arts in this field. We provide students with supports for free and creative activities so that they can establish photographic expressions as artists by using their sensitivities and techniques. Their activities are expanding and developing freely, and they are producing photographic albums on their own, opening web galleries, and making videos, media arts, and installation of space beyond a frame of photography.

In the Photography Department, students learn not only still images, but also the field of "visual expressions" where they work on the latest video recordings. At the "Experimental Dome" that Osaka University of Arts is proud of, advanced visual expression classes are also held. With 4K images projected whole-sky, powerful images using a projector coping with 4K fisheye lens are projected on a dome screen with a diameter of 16 meters. Thus you may feel as if you were there. We are also working on research to make public viewing possible at a planetarium across the country. We are exploring the possibilities of various visual expressions, including new methods of expression such as virtual reality.
