Exhibitions by Students and Staff at TUDublin School of Creative Arts.
In this project, First Year Product Design students explored shape, form, and proportion by designing and making a pendant lamp solely utilising white paper and card. The goal was to create a volume around the light source as a secondary material without embellishment or use of colour. Students undertook an iterative process in response to the brief, exploring ways in which light could be diffused using paper construction techniques learned in the first semester. The completed lamp was then photographed in the photography studio and presented alongside A3 posters in a studio exhibition.
4th year Visual Communication students are currently working on the ISTD (International Society of Typographic Designers) briefs which Brenda Dermody, Peter Maybury, and Louise Reddy co-supervise. The students produce varied outputs for this, some focussing on the digital, spatial or exhibitionary, but for many there is a significant print component. Peter brought in some of his accumulated printed matter and set it out on the floor in the back atrium of the East Quad building. The morning was spent pouring over this and talking about it with various student groups. Arranging the material in this configuration, large to small, makes you think about the flat landscape of paper, and the inert, closed book, that fold and unfold as poetic, dynamic, sculptural forms when people interact with and operate them. This spatiotemporal encounter then has implications for all media.
The MA in Graphic Design Practice combines contemporary education practices, meaningful industry links and excellent facilities to deliver this unique course. It combines research, practical studio work and the development of relevant technology and entrepreneurial skills to equip graduates as design professionals.
The research module provides participants with the opportunity to conduct research on a chosen topic that is important to them and has professional relevance in a graphic design context. Throughout the research process students are asked to develop a visual representation of their research as a tool of substantive and subject specific knowledge. Visit the East Quad building this week to see these five unique visual representations by our 2022/23 cohort.
