Photography on display included depictions of night-time walks along the Thames, explorations of cultural heritage, collages of the metropolis and botanical still life. The course encourages a practical and critical exploration of photography, helping students to develop their own vision through tackling modules which challenge their understanding of the medium.

The show was part of the University of West London’s annual ARTSFEST – which showcases the creativity and coursework of final year students from the London College of Music and the London School of Film, Media and Design in venues across London between May and July.

It is the first time we’ve exhibited in the West End and we're at an established gallery. Coningsby Gallery is in a very central location and a great gallery and the work looked really good,”

explained Photography Course Leader Peter Bennett.

Visual Effects Course Leader Angus Luscombe added:

Taking the exhibition into central London, an area at the heart of the visual effects industry, has given unprecedented exposure of our graduates’ art to major employers. 

We even had LiDAR Lounge, a scanning company, take a break from filming in the area to pop in to see the show."

Visual Effects student Yas Patel said:

My goal is to become a junior VFX compositor for a big studio.

I have enjoyed exploring my creativity – the course has taught me a whole range of skills and software and working on our final project brings these all together.”
