Exhibition at Anglia Ruskin University Showcases Graduate Work Exploring Connection to Place

Exploring themes of home, heritage, urban environments, migration, and belonging, the Annual Graduate Showcase at Anglia Ruskin University (ARU) demonstrates the powerful influence of "place" on identity and artistic expression. The exhibition, which runs from June 6-13 on the university's Cambridge campus, invites employers, fellow creatives, and the public to engage with innovative and thought-provoking content while forging valuable connections and gaining fresh perspectives.

The showcase features work from over 300 students enrolled in 15 undergraduate courses and various ARU Masters’ programs. The exhibit includes projects spanning diverse mediums, from Alice Hibbert's handknitted jumper celebrating her Welsh roots to Freyja Finnis' graphic novel delving into a young person's journey of self-belief and acceptance in a small rural community.

BA (Hons) Photography student Betsy Richards-Kemp's project, titled Echoes of Home, a Transatlantic Dialogue, addresses questions about one's sense of belonging by examining the impact of transatlantic movement and migration on black communities, drawing upon the poignant narrative of two separated sisters. Based in Suffolk, Richards-Kemp seeks to tell untold stories of people's lives and understand the shared culture, history, and connections that bind communities.

Fine Art student Zineb Khadraoui uses handmade ceramic tiles featuring photographic transfers from her travels and family archives to map personal and collective histories. Her circular installation invites visitors to walk through the space and ponder the idea of returning to one's roots—physically and emotionally.

Issac Khera, a BA (Hons) Graphic Design student, investigates how place affects our sensory experiences. His work, focusing on Hitchin, examines the interaction of sound and the environment, using a variable typeface to highlight the subtleties of rainfall on various surfaces.

Lisa-Marie Soulier and Claudia Vogt, Film and TV Production students, have co-produced Saturday Night Butch, a documentary highlighting the significance of lesbian nightclubs in celebrating masculine-presenting lesbians. Traveling across the UK, the duo interviewed members of the community in venues ranging from nightclubs to barbershops, bringing together lesbians from diverse backgrounds.

ARU’s Graduate Showcase encompasses installations, moving images, and digital media, representing a myriad of lenses through which place contributes to our experiences and future. Many of the works also reflect a strong commitment to social and environmental issues.

Visitors may access the free Graduate Showcase from June 6-13, during ARU’s Undergraduate Open Day on June 7. The exhibition takes place at ARU’s main East Road campus in Cambridge. For more information, visit https://creativeshowcase.our website/showcase/graduate-showcase
