It looks like the lunchtime preview event for the ‘Sponta-neous’ pop-up exhibition at Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art and Design was a success. Wen Xi Kong, Heidi Le, Daphne March and Ceci Wong, Four students from the International College Dundee (ICD) Art and Design course, with the support of their peers and tutor Robert Page and DJCAD’s Public Engagement Team, had the opportunity to showcase their creativity to the public in the Matthew building lower foyer gallery.<\/span><\/p>\n

Although the exhibition ran from Tuesday, June 13th until Friday, June 16th, 2023, if you missed the chance to see it in person, there’s good news. Robert Page, the tutor, captured the atmosphere and took images of the work on display so we can share them with you here. <\/span><\/p>\n
