 Emi Harako
Central Saint Martins
College of Art and Design
BA Hons Fine Art, 2009
"My
work is inspired by the art and consumer items that are present in
the Japanese cute culture, after all they are bright colored, ever
present and televised. The Western academic establishment has reasoned
that the Japanese have an affinity to represent themselves in a cute
guise as, well, the world and life are less scary that way, in theory.
That's in theory, in practice I wish you to see my paintings, which deal
with highly individual emotions of loneliness, boredom and
introspection to the point of sexual solitaire."

 Yuma Tomiyasu
Chelsea College of
Art And Design
BA Hons Fine Art, 2009
"With her
works, Yuma is attempting to explore the boundary between figurative
depiction and an accidental abstraction. Technically, her paintings
could be categorised as 'portraits' but she considers them not to own
the conventional function of portraits as the formal particularity of a
depicted individual (s) is disappearing from her canvas and hence they
shift and assimilate to the abstract side. "

 Alec Strang
London College Of
Communication,
BA Graphic Media Design Illustration, 2009
"What I
attempt to achieve is not only to celebrate the human figure but also to
emphasise how an image can be constructed through grids and how that in
tern manipulates the image.
This interest in grid structure spawned
from studying graphic design for two years, during this time I developed
an interest in Russian constructivism the futurists and Modernism. It
was this obsession with construction, layout and movement, which gave me
a strong foundation to work from."
