Graduates 2024: Jac Doe: Fine Art Painting
“Having a studio space to develop and play out ideas has been fantastic. A zone designated solely for creativity where I can experiment freely, alongside discussion with tutors about what is happening and why within my painting has helped me grow rapidly as an artist, and more importantly searched inside myself for my own truth.”
Graduates 2024: Greta Carroll: Digital Music and Sound Arts
“I have loved my tutors and the technicians and how inspiring they are. I have learnt so much and now I know the ins and outs of both the history of sound; I’ve enjoyed learning to record the sound of electricity and having a deep knowledge of artists and what they do. I’m dyslexic and had very low confidence in myself all my life. I feel the course has really freed me up and I feel I can hold my own now in a conversation in sound and electronic music.”

“I’m from London, and living in a smaller city where I can get everywhere by foot is great. It means I get out and about more, it feels like it opens up more possibilities. I think I’ll forever associate Brighton with spending long days in the university studio, getting lost in work… I’ll miss that student-studio atmosphere. I like the hustle and bustle of it; the productivity of it.”
