Summer Show 2012

So this is what the students have been working towards for the past months and years. Its Summer Show time and the culmination of several years of hard work. Congratulations to all of the students, many of whom have worked with us in the Wood Workshop. 




Many students from Fine Art have worked with us whether it be small or large complex or simple. Below are images of some of their degree show work.

The students from BA ISD are often found in our workshop. The course involves many making projects, both group and individual. The final year students are in groups known as platforms and these platforms show together to create a busy and vibrant space. Below are some images of the work.
















Although generally studio based, several students from the Graduate Diploma Interior Design course have worked with us in the Wood Workshop building their final architectural models. This year showing in the Banquet Hall, they put the room to good use by dressing it ready for a, well....banquet! Below are some images taken from the show.






FDA Interior Design show work from students from both years 1&2. Utilizing us in the workshop, a large part of the work is the re-appropriation of found furniture. Below are some images taken from the show.







We continue to see a great many students from Textiles using the workshop. With an ongoing desire to learn new processes that can be used in the production of the work, the end results are a great deal more work being 3 dimensional. Below are some examples of the work.

As always, the Triangle gallery was occupied by students from BA Graphics for the show. Walls, plinths, shelves, seating, display units and screens, as well as the odd bit of work, have all been made in our workshop. Below are some images taken from within the space.
