A Sheffield College student has been selected to exhibit their work in a national exhibition this week.
Origins Creatives takes place at the Truman Brewery in Shoreditch, London, on July 22nd, 23rd and 24th.
Taylor Clarke’s short film Emergence caught the attention of the UAL Awarding Body’s curator from nearly 500 submissions.
Taylor said: “I am very happy and extremely grateful that my short film ‘Emergence’ is being exhibited in London. It will be the film’s first public screening and I look forward to how people may react to it.”
Taylor has studied a UAL Level 3 Extended Diploma in Film, TV and SFX for two years and has built her portfolio and skill set within college and independently during that time.
She has taken part in many other initiatives including the BFI Film Academy and the NFTS Craft Skills Course, and continuously seeks to further her knowledge of filmmaking, expand her skillset and explore new areas within media. View Taylor’s portfolio on Instagram.
“As this academic year draws to a close, I am now seeking industry employment and training, with the hope of securing a placement and/or employment sometime in the near future. I also have a few completed projects that currently await release,” explained Taylor.
Origins Creatives is organised by UAL Awarding Body and provides art lovers, critics and industry professionals from the creative sector with the chance to discover original creative talent from across the UK and celebrate students’ creativity and hard work.
The free exhibition showcases work from some of the UK’s most talented students in further education institutions studying across the UAL subject areas of art and design, fashion business and retail, creative media, music performance and production and performing arts.
The exhibition will showcase selected work created by students from Levels 1, 2, 3 and 4 across all subject areas and include a diverse range of painting, photography, drawing, sculpture, fashion and more. Within the exhibition, a Soundcloud music playlist and showreel of moving images comprised of student work will be played.
Ross Anderson, Director, UAL Awarding Body, said: “The UAL Awarding Body Origins Creatives show is my favourite moment of the year, and I’m so pleased that we’re able to return to a physical space this summer."
She added: “Origins provides our awarding body community with the opportunity to come together and celebrate the wonderful work and amazing achievements of all our students, and recognise the remarkable efforts of the tutors and teachers who have supported them. The world needs creativity, now more than ever, and our students are bursting with it!”
This year, Origins Creatives will be an in-person exhibition at The Truman Brewery in Shoreditch. It will be open to the public from July 22nd until 24th, alongside an online showcase. To book your place, please visit the Origins Creatives Eventbrite link.
