Fine Art Printmaking BA (Hons)
Open 4-9 June 2011
From 4 to 9 June 2011, exhibits from
more than 500 students will transform
the Faculty of Arts' Grand Parade campus into the biggest gallery in the south-
east of the UK.
With two buildings and three-floors of gallery space to explore, over 15,000 visitors will discover the work of the class of 2011: perhaps taking the opportunity to commission work or compile a collection before students emerge as leading lights in their chosen discipline.

Penelope Kenny
Artist Statement
Penelope Kenny's work explores the relationship between humans and other animals, especially in connection to transhumanism, evolution, hybrids and biotechnology. Through her hybrid creatures she investigates the potential outcomes of humans trying to control evolution through genetic manipulation and scientific tampering with the species boundaries.
Her practice consists of screenprinted wallpapers, book works and fine art prints. She draws inspiration from Darwinism, dioramas, natural history illustration and taxidermy and takes great pleasure in imagining and representing the postmodern animal.
