MMU Degree Shows 2025 Part Two

A short return to the Manchester Metropolitan University & Manchester School of Art Degree Shows this week on the journal to share a few more pieces. These are the picks I would be taking home from the show. Love the light captured in Ruby Eden's scenic pieces and the expression in the portraits by Regi Clark and Heather Tully Bolton. Interesting mixes of colour contrasting those strong burnt oranges and warm burgundy browns with the sharp cool lilacs. Lots to enjoy.
