Wandering Peripheries, Switching Borders

Abstract

After completing my first degree in the teaching of art at the University of Malta, I couldn’t say that I had a proper art education. Back then, the possibilities for a good artistic formation in Malta were few. Available art diplomas did not have a real vision, let alone a real value, and only a limited number of art teachers were practising artists. The only course at university that offered some art practice was the B.Ed. (Hons) degree in Art Education and this degree only skimmed the surface.
