Art gallery exhibits the work of student ‘masters’

“Full-time and part-time students have come from a variety of backgrounds and experiences to contribute to the debates and extend their individual practices, with a good proportion of international students offering enriched cultural understandings of art and design.

“Our staff are all experienced researchers and/or professional designers and artists in their own right, who have shared their knowledge and expertise with students to deliver exciting and challenging opportunities for learning.  The result of their valuable input is clear in the high standard of student work on show this year.”

Mirco Monsees, 24 from Bremen, Germany, who studied for a Master’s in Digital & Visual Communications, said: “My Master’s project is a series of posters showcasing a custom typeface that brings a cohesive aesthetic to eight of the most spoken languages in the world.  It‘s my way of exploring different writing systems and saying hello to 2.9 billion people.

“The self-directed nature of the MA program has helped me explore my own skill-set and focus, to gain a deeper understanding of my creative approach. I would love to work at a traditional design firm with a focus on branding that promotes excellence as well as experimentation, and I’m confident that my education has prepared me for any challenges the job might throw at me.”
