Bath Spa University at New designers 2011
Bath Spa University has quite different stories to tell about the two disciplines exhibiting at New Designers this year but both look at celebrating the success of combining determination, craft skills and creative design talent.

Sadly, this is the last year for a specialist cohort from the BA Ceramics course due to the devastating drop in the subject student numbers across the sector, a great shame to the discipline and to the Bath School of Art and Design whose Ceramic alumni boasts many highly regarded Ceramicists. Not deterred the School continues to support ceramic practice with the Masters in Ceramics and PhD research strengthening, plus new developments at undergraduate level which include ceramics in combined studies courses and the new specialist course, BA Three Dimensional Design: Idea Material Object.
These final Ceramics graduates exhibit an eclectic range of work from the highly graphic, large bold work to sensitive almost-hidden pieces, decorative and painterly to clean sophisticated forms, the pieces are skilfully made and may even create an impact through the power of illusion. These graduates celebrate their great Ceramic craft.
The School is extremely proud to present it's Textile and Ceramics graduates at New Designers.
