Illustration
I enjoyed Greg Hamilton's illustrations giving advice on how to avoid contracting Malaria. An excellent use of visuals as a form of communicating important information. It really gets the message across for all to understand in a visually appealing way.
I loved the work of Danielle Smith, especially her ceramic pieces. The head planters have such character and the ceramic cigarettes are so unusual. I would love to have the little guy with the cactus head, just look at his awesome beard.
Nicola Prosser's Map of Hades has so many interesting details. The dark colours and style give this piece a strong sense of folklore and narrative.
Fine Art
The work of Angel Zorn creeped me out, but in a really good way. Her sculptures are terrifying and the set design of her photographs and short film were so surreal and yet scarily familiar. It's like the end of Don't Look Now realised in fine art form.
I found Sam Garry's work very beautiful. The lighting of it was very atmospheric. I also loved the shape of the canvases as they gave the impression you were looking through a microscopic or a telescope.
Callum Reid's room contained many many heads. If found it really interesting looking at all the different proportions, textures and finishes they came in.
Graphic Design
I loved the humor of Hannah Doig's pieces. The use of fabric as the posters really reinforced the event being advertised. I'm also a big fan of a good play on words.
Product Design
Jamie Kunka's wooden ski's were beautifully crafted and the branding behind the range of accessories looked great. I'm not a skier but if I was I'd want these.
Of course there was loads more great stuff on display but a blog post can only be so long. I'd recommend checking out all the graduates work on the website and make sure you don't miss next years.
