HK2024
In June, fourteen UWE students from BA(Hons) Graphic Design, Illustration, and Fine Art visited the Hong Kong Design Institute (HKDI), following a visit to Bristol by HKDI students in May. Together with designer and lectuer Marco Ugolini, we travelled to Hong Kong, where we organised a series of workshops, didactic visits, and field trips to local museums and cultural centres for both groups of students. These activities facilitated cross-cultural conversations, offering students the opportunity to reflect on both differences and shared values between the two contexts. A selection of photographs, artworks, and reflections can be found on: typenowhere.com/hk2024. The project culminated in an exhibition at Bristol Local, showcasing outcomes from the exchange and shared insights into visual culture and art education.
A big thank you to Sandra Wong, Vincent Lee, Wayne Lloyd, and Patrick O’Flynn for their invaluable support.
Liminal Routes
Liminal Routes was established as a means to support club cultures, provide opportunities for new listening experiences and promote the work of DJs and artists while spaces for such gathering were on hold due to COVID-19. The project consists of a series of situated audio mixtapes, with each artist creating a mixtape for a walking route of their choice in the city.

The Nocturns
The Nocturns are a pop music producing duo based in London. The logo represents an owl to illustrate the name of the duo. The image is composed of lines of different thickness, which form a sound wave. The two eyes were subtly used both as a way of creating a monogram capturing the initials of the founders, J and C, and as a way of suggesting the different mediums used by the producers in their process, such as mix tapes and DJ decks. The winking eye creates asymmetries within the design, and suggests the friendly and approachable nature of the duo and their music.

The Market Will Regulate Itself
The past few years of British politics have been characterised by privatisation, deregulation of the market, austerity policies and competitiveness. Neoliberal policies have shaped not only the way we live but also our society and environment. As a way of encapsulating the ideological change brought about by the ideology and its repercussions on our system, I created a sound piece mixing recorded sounds titled ‘The Market Will Regulate Itself’ as a social commentary on our current system and its flaws.

Bricks + Mortar
In 1919, the Government created the Addison Act, a move that made individual housing needs a national responsibility and aimed to provide good quality housing for working people. 100 years on in 2019 the state of our housing is not only a national crisis, but a national scandal. Bristol is particularly affected. The Bricks + Mortar exhibition was set up to display and engage the public with the work of 3rd year UWE students (2019), a series of site-specific mega graphics installed around the city at the same time on Monday 11th November and then exhibited at the Vestibules in College Green.
