Global Design Graduate Show* in collaboration with GUCCI is open to all undergraduate, graduate and postgraduate art and design disciplines for those that have graduated between October 2021 - August 2022 (Southern hemisphere graduating after October 2021).

The Global Design Graduate Show 2022 is your chance to share your creative work alongside your peers from around the world and get it judged by industry leaders.

It is your chance to curate your creative personality by mixing research with 2D/3D development documenting all the different creative and technical development stages up to the final outcome. It would be good to know your personal creative journey, whether by photo or film.

We also encourage you to produce a short self-curated Instagram stories style film to introduce your work to the world in your own words and visuals.

We will be launching exciting graduate support led activities, webinars, masterclasses and releasing practical information on how to experiment, curate and upload your creative journey onto the platform, allowing you to express the diversity and raw creative process.

Please spread the word and sign up for new updates on the ARTS THREAD Newsletter

*Global Design Graduate Show is a non-profit organisation set up to promote the work of graduating art & design students worldwide.
