Highlight of student work includes:
Hannah Eccles (MA Animation) combines 3D computer animation and analogue prowess to create a slapstick animation following the psychological journey of a cowboy, his truck and his elusive therapist, in the Wild West.
Yati Sharma (MFA Communication) presents ‘Hi! Who are you?’, a multi-sensory space that gives audiences the opportunity to introspect on how we are drifting away from our own ‘ideal self’ to fit into the social perceptions of a shared space. In this, Sharma explores an obsession with identity.
Rose Antony’s (MA Visual Communication) project is rooted in her experiences growing up in Kerala as a Syrian Catholic and feeling excluded from the Hindu Malayali culture. It follows Antony’s discovery of Kerala’s pre colonial matriarchal society and explores the impact that had on her own identity as an Indian woman.
Riya Bhagat (MA Information Experience Design) presents ‘Fashion after Fashion’, a speculative project imagining a future where clothing is inhabited by bacteria that evolve with differing environmental conditions, becoming more beautiful through prioritising care and connection to the non-human world.
