Undergraduate degrees in Fine Art

From editing in the studio, meeting with artists and working in the gallery, Ellie Turner describes how no day is the same when studying Fine Art at UCA Farnham...

10.00am: we went to photocopy our passports ready for a class trip to Berlin we’re going on soon. We’re always getting out and about, seeing shows in London and once a year we go abroad.

After a trip to equipment hire to pick up a camera for the day, I start making. I’ve been working on a karaoke installation for an exhibition at Chelsea School of Art I’m taking part in.

5.20pm: I leave the studio for the day. The structured day ends at 4.30pm but normally everyone stays until a bit later. I have a part-time job in Farnham town so I stay working in the studio (more editing) then start work at 5.30pm.

7.30pm: The weekdays are normally very long, but it’s always really rewarding and I wouldn’t change it. My days at uni are always different and it never gets boring!

UCA Fashion Promotion and Imaging graduate Cassidy Moses initially wanted to work in fashion and direct editorial photoshoots.

But the skills she gained on her course, coupled with a deep desire to bring art to a wider audience, have earned her an exciting role at the National Museum of African American History and Culture in Washington, DC.
