Great news for our Art students this week! Alongside our UAL Extended Diploma in Creative Practice students, Art Foundation student, Niamh McArdle has also been selected to exhibit work in the UAL Origins Exhibition.

A Message from the University of the Arts London (UAL)

“Niamh’s submission, titled Alone in a Crowd, explores the feeling of disconnect that loneliness can bring, not just from others but also from yourself. It caught the attention of the UAL Awarding Body’s curator amongst nearly 500 submissions. Niamh produced this work as her final major project whilst studying UAL Level 4 Foundation Diploma in Art and Design at Carmel College. This exciting and innovative one-year course is designed to equip students with the skills and knowledge needed to access Higher Education and employment in the Creative Industries.”
