School of Design / 72 students

This programme brings together Graphic Design, Illustration and Photography, while encouraging exploration across and beyond disciplinary boundaries. Students develop creative forms of communication that critically engage with issues including identity, faith, philosophy and culture. Projects demonstrate strong criticality and ethical awareness alongside thoughtful, detailed physical outcomes. The programme supports professionally oriented practice, with students working towards high standards and considering the contexts in which their work will operate.

The composition is framed by a silver plate, arranged like a formal table setting with a tablecloth, plate, knife and fork. Inside the plate, a character in a white suit raises a glass while being manipulated by skeletons, surrounded by a lavish feast of flowers and carnivorous plants. A vivid red Sword of Damocles hangs above his head. He is both the one enjoying the feast and part of what is being consumed.
