MA Degree Show Bath School of Art and Design 2019 (Bat Spa University)
The 2019 MA Degree catalogue featuring master's students work from Curatorial Practice, Ceramics, Fashion and Textiles, Fine Art and Visual Communication. Designed by Grazia Campanella and Simon Taylor. The identity was influenced by the new Bath Spa School of Art and Design campus at Locksbrook Road. The site was originally a Herman Miller Furniture Factory and was designed by renowned architect Nicholas Grimshaw. Herman Miller’s design philosophy can be summed up in their mission statement ‘Inspiring designs to help people do great things’. This is something that is considered in all Herman Miller product designs and developments. It is also at the centre to all of their external design collaborations. It seems apt that the building is now an art school continuing the development of making and creating. It was a pleasure to study within the action factory environment, particularly the photographic darkrooms and printing and etching workshops. Simon Taylor Visual Artist

Dr Andrea Medjesi-Jones, Course Leader
FINE ART
MA Fine Art is a studio-based programme, with an
accent on contemporary art production and contexts.
The critical nature of the course allows students to immerse
themselves into research and to work on developing and
establishing their own independent visual language and
approach to practice.
We are very proud of our efforts to maintain this
independence, and to see the outcomes of our students’
thinking and working on the course. It is life changing in
some instances, in others life affirming and inspirational.
The standard of students’ outputs and the nature of their
enquires is a reflection on the world we live in.
As a Course Leader, this is my biggest pride – to
experience the variety and the relevance of works produced,
that is visually challenging and contributes towards broader
conversations and traditions of art production.
This year we are particularly proud of the community
and the peer-ship of our students, whose self-motivation,
knowledge and hard work has not only put up an excellent
graduate show, but helped establish life long friendships and
collaborations, which will bear great successes outside the
Bath Schools of Art and Design.
Our thanks and congratulations go to the 2018 MA
Fine Art graduates. We wish them the best of luck in their
future pursuits and art practices.
