History of Art students in Talbot Rice Gallery Edinburgh College of Art
Our in-depth studies cut across the boundaries between music, philosophy and sociology. I like the capacity to cover such different research topics. It was one of the main reasons for me to choose Edinburgh.
I want to make something other people can resonate with. Things that evoke memories or moments. I think what I love most about making picture books is crafting the word and image together.
This was an incredible way to wrap up my undergraduate years, bringing together what to me is essential in architecture: to improve the human experience for the individual as well as the collective.
Welcome to Edinburgh College of Art (ECA), a leading international art college within the University of Edinburgh. Located in the historic Old Town of one of the world’s greatest cultural cities, we offer a creative and supportive environment in which to study one of 80 ground-breaking programmes or take forward research within a global Top 50 institution.
Three University of Edinburgh students organised the event in ECA’s West Court, inviting sustainable brands and recent graduates to showcase their work.
On 2 April 2018, 20 Edinburgh College of Art (ECA) students set up work in the Fire Station for this year’s Astaire Art Prize exhibition. The work had been shortlisted from an original list of 80 entries, and they all stood a chance of winning the £3,000 prize, or one of the £750 runner-up prizes.
Poppy Fordham, a 3rd year History of Art student, has set up Sensi, which gives visitors a chance to engage with art in a relaxed and social atmosphere.
