Having completed her BA, Ahwa

Habeeb is now embarking on an

MA in Philosophy, with a focus

on contemporary art theory.

“This may seem like a jump, but

I’d argue that art is rooted in

philosophy and that philosophy

is rooted in art,” she says.

Her project, Copy/Paste

Culture & the Death of

Originality, examines how the

rise of digital mediums have

allowed art to be easily

reproducible, which changes

how we perceive it.

Harry Eastham’s approach to
design is all about pushing
boundaries. “I love to question
structures, digital experiences
and ways of interacting,” he says.
One highlight of his time at
university was creating the
visual identity for its graduate
show, Units. “A small group of us
worked to develop a dynamic
identity system, which
communicated the assemblage
of people, coming together to
form a greater whole,” he says.
Eastham was also awarded a
D&AD New Blood Pencil, along
with his co-founder Jack Fancy,
for MATR1: an ongoing
experimental platform to inspire
young creatives to explore the
world outside of design.
