2023 Head & Neck Cancer Conference Guide Book

Meet the future artists
honing their skills...
Tucked away in beautiful Devon, England lies the creative hub of University Centre South
Devon (UCSD). As part of South Devon College, UCSD upholds rigorous academic standards
while fostering an environment, where students can thrive and develop their unique creative
talents. This institution prides itself on offering a diverse range of arts programmes that equip
graduates with the skills to excel in their chosen creative fields.
This November, UCSD is thrilled to showcase its students'
talents at the International Head and Neck Cancer
Conference 2023 at the Grand Hotel in Torquay.
Contemporary Arts students will exhibit paintings and mixed media work
reflecting on their process of artistically interpreting patients' experiences.
Illustration students will use the conference as inspiration for powerful live figure
drawing and portraiture. Media Production students will document the events
through video, interviews and photography. By contributing their creativity to this
international conference, UCSD's arts students will spread awareness and hope to
attendees from around the globe.
Within the halls of UCSD, one will find future artists honing their skills in the Fine Art studios,
illustrators carefully etching in the printmaking rooms, and actors bringing stories to life. The
university’s state-of-the-art facilities, including photography darkrooms, MAC suites, and dance
studios, enable students to learn specialised techniques and put theory into practice.
The renowned FdA Contemporary Arts Practice course allows artists to explore everything
from illustration to graphic design, sculpture to textiles, as they shape their own creative
identities. Through access to expert faculty, exhibition opportunities, and hands-on workshops,
students gain real-world skills to turn their artistic passions into professions after graduation.
