Two BA (Hons) Fine Art graduates from Arts University Bournemouth (AUB) have had their work selected for inclusion in The Platform Graduate Award.
Returning to Aspex Portsmouth, the new exhibition features the work of AUB graduates Maria Aoyama and Yasmin Seyfollahi, celebrating the region's most exciting, emerging artistic talent.
Aspex Portsmouth is currently the Industry Patron for AUB’s MA Fine Art course, sharing their experience and industry insights with students.
Presenting the work of 10 talented artists and recent graduates from across the region as they develop their artistic practice post-university, Platform aims to support emerging talent at a key moment of transition.
This year’s exhibiting artists also include Stacey Allan and Eloise Gleave from UCA Farnham, Grace Atkins and Yasmin Jabi from Winchester School of Art, Roxanne Bennett and Kilandy Buange from Southampton Solent University, and Paul Coman and Eddie Stenstrom from University of Portsmouth.
The award will feature exhibitions at three partner organisations across the South East and West including Aspex Portsmouth, Modern Art Oxford, Phoenix Art Space in Brighton and MIRROR at Arts University Plymouth.
The Platform exhibition is open from 24 October to 30 November.
