For me, the Central St. Martins Degree shows stood out more than the shows at the other UAL university, Chelsea. The Fine Art Show alone showed more promise, but it was the quality of the other departments that set the school aside from the others. I got the chance to look round the BA courses of Fine Art, Graphics, Fashion, Product Design and Animation. Each one of the courses showed variety in the student's pieces, and the principals of each subject were being explored. For example, as a part of the Fashion BA, the students created clothes and made surfaces using alternative materials, as a futuristic approach to Textiles. The Fashion show made it clear why the school is acclaimed for it's fashion department; the students had a runway show prior to the degree show, and after the garments were hung in the exhibition. Overall, this is one of the best degree shows I've seen so far, because of the variety and quality of the student's work. Central St. Martins could be a possibility.
