Jessica Porter
I work with a broard range of media, including paint, collage and ceramics. This year I specialised in designing and making homeware that pushes the viewer to think about the journey animals go to from farm to plate.
By designing homeware, I have been able to develop my skills in photoshop and work confidently with ceramics. I have also learnt how to reupholster an armchair and turn fabric into pillows. Taking the skills I have gained from my university experience, I would like to pursue a career in stage design or curating.
Awards
