Online Short Course Exhibition 2020

Thank you to everyone who submitted images of their work from Autumn and Spring 2019/20 Short Courses!

Originally, we had intended to host the exhibition at our College Road campus Library, but due to College closure, we had to adapt and go digital; the HCA Library Display website was created and, for the first time ever, the Short Course Exhibition went online!

It’s been a treat to see the array of work made on our diverse Short Course programme and such a wonderful way to showcase the incredible talent of our students since our last exhibition in 2018.

This year, we have introduced some new masterclasses and workshops to the schedule, and we are delighted to see work from the Risograph Card Workshop, Advanced Portraiture and Advanced Life Drawing masterclasses included in the exhibition. Other courses represented include: Access Ceramics, Silversmithing, Printmaking, Screen Printing, Life Drawing, Still Life Painting, Digital Photography, Garden Design and Wanna Be a Sewing Bee? Make Me Sew!

Christine Cook, Advanced Life Drawing and Painting

Some students also gave us an insight into what they thought about the course they enrolled on:

“Favourite part of the course: being able to play with fire and dangerous chemicals to satisfy the need to create something” – Silversmithing

 

Jonathan Billinger, Digital Photography

“I love the fact that you could just experiment and explore different processes and not get hung up about messing up. – Printmaking

We have been highlighting individuals’ work on the Short Course Instagram page, whilst you can view the entire exhibition on the Library Displays website. It will stay available to view online until our next Library exhibition later this year.
