This exhibition has been showing at the Rich Mix in Shoreditch, East London over February 2013. The title of the show, To Each Their Own. The UEL (University of East London) partnered up with Iniva (Institute of International Visual Arts) to exhibit a selection of UEL student work.
So what’s the exhibition all about?
Each artist in the show has been selected because of their response to the world around them, which over the past year has involved recessions, social media polemics, revolutions and many more newsworthy stories. The artists demonstrate how these events shape their approaches and subject matter in art.
From photographic works to sculpture and painting, Photography Course London thought the exhibition showed raw talent, originality and diversity of subject matter and techniques. When organisations team up to deliver student exhibitions it shows their support of upcoming talent by bringing their artwork into the limelight and the public eye. Apart from ‘To Each Their Own’ being an enjoyable feast for the eyes, some of these students will go onto do great things in the commercial art world and that’s the exciting part!
