Life could be beautiful if you let it

This exhibition presents works by a group of second year fine art students from the University of Leeds.

Our exhibition is about finding beauty in the different perception of the everyday.

Each artist shows their way of doing this using different media such as textiles, paint, collage, video and lino printing.

We’re interested in the variety of life and how each person can show their perspective on it. Collectively, our work encapsulates themes of time, home, memory and whimsy.
