Student Voices

“From the beginning of the first year, having hands-on workshop experience has been the best way for me to develop new skills but also make mistakes, learn from them and have fun.”

Brandon Tan

“It's amazing being able to work in an environment where everyone is creating their own work, and helping each other to develop through crits and just generally chatting has been so beneficial to my own practice.”
