“Research Images as Art / Art Images as Research”

Cross-Disciplinary Competition/Exhibition 2017/18


The Doctoral School would like to thank everyone for entering our competition and for contributing towards what was an excellent exhibition – we've had very good feedback and certainly had fun organising the event.

We are pleased that so many of you were inspired to submit images of (or from) your research. There was real diversity in your subjects and representation across different disciplines of research, which of course, reflects the high quality of research being undertaken at UCL. As judges, we were, in particular, looking for images that were not only artistically accomplished and aesthetically interesting, but also communicated something about your research findings or process that would transform the way a viewer could understand your discipline or research area, or indeed their view of the world.

— Dr Beth Munro, Institute of Making, member of the judging panel
