Melanie Clague, Head of the Creative & Leisure Industries Faculty, said: ‘Our annual Art, Design, Media & Music Exhibition is always a fantastic event and really highlights the quality of work our students are producing. We’re proud that our students choose a really diverse range of mediums to work on from more traditional fine art processes to more cutting-edge media outputs, contemporary and sustainable fashion, different music genres, the list is endless but it makes for a really fantastic exhibition.
