The showcases promise a diverse array of creative endeavours, ranging from typographic explorations to international photography collaborations. 

Showcase of New Creative Projects and Artwork 

A diverse selection of artwork and projects created by Contemporary Creative Practice’s first and second-year students is now featured in the latest exhibition at BUV. 

The artworks demonstrate different concepts such as dreams, thoughts and covetousness with unique visualizations. 

From captivating Video Journals to intricate Printmaking creations, our students have poured their creativity and passion into a wide range of projects and modules. These encompass disciplines such as “Study Skills for Creative Practitioners,” “Visual Studies,” “Practical Contemporary Art Practice (Photography & Printmaking),” and “Visual Communication.” 

The new exhibition offers a unique opportunity to witness the talent and innovation of CCP’s students. 

Artworks will be displayed across the BUV campus, providing visitors with a unique opportunity to witness the talent and creativity of Contemporary Creative Practice students. 

Typographic Culture and Context  

As a part of Level 5/Year 2’s curriculum – “Exploring Contemporary Art Practice”, the “Typographic Culture and Context” module tasks students with the challenge of crafting innovative typographic creations. These creations are intricately linked to their areas of expertise in graphic design, illustration, or photography. 

With this exciting exhibition, visitors can explore typographic culture and creativity in art practice. 

In this dynamic assignment, students are proactive in exploring the intricate world of typography and its cultural relevance from a variety of angles, including design, illustration, photography, and visual research. Throughout the process, students polished their talents in a variety of media disciplines, including showreels, moving images, digital art, craftsmanship, digital media, augmented reality (AR), and virtual reality.
