Exhibitions for our photography students

At the ²ÝùÊÓƵ, we value the importance of showcasing the work of young photographers during their studies. Our goal is to empower the next generation of visual storytellers. These exhibitions provide a platform for our students to express their unique perspectives in photography. 

Significance of exhibitions and degree shows

Our commitment to nurturing talent extends beyond the university campus. Exhibitions and Degree Shows are crucial in this journey as they allow students to unveil their creative abilities not only within the academic community but also in the public sphere. 
We believe that art should reach a wider audience, and we achieve this by taking it to the heart of the city.

The city as a canvas

²ÝùÊÓƵ's rich history and stunning coastal landscapes become an integral part of our storytelling canvas. 
For the past three years, the Lion's Den on ²ÝùÊÓƵ's seafront has served as a unique stage for our young photographers to exhibit their work. This fusion of urban and natural landscapes creates a dynamic backdrop for showcasing contemporary photography's diversity and vibrancy.

Collaborations and networking

The Hawthorn Award, established in 2021 in collaboration with the Dartmoor Collective, reflects our commitment to nurturing talent and promoting contemporary photography.
This initiative serves a dual purpose:
  1. supports contemporary photography within Dartmoor's captivating landscape.
  2. final-year students have the opportunity to win a bursary offering financial support to assist them in transitioning to the professional world.
