EIT’s Ideaschool final-year visual arts and design degree students have pushed their boundaries this year with the graduate exhibition.

Eclectic is how we would describe it.

Art produced by 33 students and showcased in the exhibition encompasses a wide range of  disciplines including embroidery, ceramics, cast glass, graphic design, painting, printing, spatial design, product design, assemblage of found objects, installation work, sculpture, woodwork and leatherwork.

Materials are also varied.  Some of the more unusual materials and objects used in the artworks are birds’ nests, pumice, wax, a stair banister, a metal trowel, animal gut, fused glass, magnets and rubber.

Programme coordinator Nigel Roberts says the exhibition’s eclecticism demonstrates the freedom ideaschool’s Bachelor of Visual Arts and Design students have to explore their creativity.

Check it out at EIT from 11am-4pm until this Sunday.
