We are excited to show you images of the final student work for 2022. This catalogue celebrates the hard work, extraordinary creativity and resilience of this year’s successful Foundation diploma students, and represents the first physical exhibition of our coursework since the start of the pandemic. I am delighted to say that the body of work is of great quality, wildly varied in concept and execution, highly individual and, in short, strongly representative of the ethos of this unique pre-degree diagnostic programme. As a snapshot, it captures the students’ work and ideas at a key transitional point before they leap into undergraduate study, employment or professional practice, and I hope you’ll agree that whatever their destination, their future is bright - very bright indeed.

Thank you
Huge thanks to Andra Priboi who designed the catalogue and the DMU print centre for all their hard work and support. Thanks to Nigel Essex who photographed most of the show, and Mark boot who shot the rest. Thanks to the Foundation sta Lucie, Mark, Andrea, Will, Lorna, Heather and John for inspiring the students all year and curating the show. Enormous gratitude to all our amazing technicians who ensure that students leave the course in possession of new skills, new materials and techniques and practical solutions to realising all their crazy thoughts. Thanks to Daniel the newest and very welcome addition to the art school technical support network, and to Will Baker for his tireless enthusiasm and skill in making our final show a huge success. Special thanks too for Lorraine Jones our FE coordinator and Foundation administrator – to Jo Booth, Kate Cheyne and Simon Bradbury for their support for the course and its relationship to the faculty undergraduate portfolio. And finally, thanks to the students for being prepared to be challenged, to make mistakes, to discover new methods of making and thinking, and to starting a lifelong love of learning - and hopefully a few lifelong friendships too.
