Capstones are in full swing! In their second semester, digital arts students dedicate an entire class to a passion project of their choice, which they will display at the year end show in April!

These sketches are product concepts by Ava David, who plans to launch an online shop for her capstone project. The theme of this product line is Grimm’s Fairytales. Can you guess which story each artwork is based on? 🤔

Beautiful conceptual work! 'Cubism in photography' by Kuvshinova Irina.

"My photo about the loss of cultural roots, the idea has been around for a long time, but I didn't want to wear costumes. And so cubism helped to cope and show the process of *scattering* and loss."
