MA Graphic Design 2014
A parallel approach
This dynamic display proudly presents the work of forty-eight full-time and twelve part-time MA Graphic Design graduates from London College of Communication, University of the Arts London. Emerging from a challenging research-led site of enquiry, our graduates invite you to join them in an experience that stands somewhere between an action, a test, a showcase and a conversation.
A parallel approach is a place of action, not of exhibition. It is an opportunity to associate fragments of research, experimentation and realisation; to contemplate aspects that are foreign to one another; to encounter new findings for some that are reminders for others; to activate and interpret; to formulate and consider; to build transitions and justifications; to wander and to ponder; to stop and to think. Much like our graduates, you are invited to resist convention, administer caution with assumption and suspend established habitual modes of engagement whilst making your way through this rich, divergent and sprawling terrain of theoretical, conceptual and practical endeavours.
Acknowledging the contingency of culture, the complexities of society and the sprawling matters graphic design engages with, this graduating body of students has set firm foundations in place that will carry them forward into new, speculative and productive futures. We advise you to keep an eye out for this resilient, nimble, critical and imaginative bunch.
