Potential of Hidden Art Cornwall

Chris Chapman, Business Fellow in 3D Design at University College Falmouth, said, “Extending the Hidden Art franchise to Cornwall will give a tremendous boost to designer-makers in the county.  Work of the highest quality is being produced here.  If designer-makers in the capital can benefit from the networking, marketing and advisory services of Hidden Art, how much more will practitioners in Cornwall welcome the opportunities for collaboration and promotion that this franchise can offer.”

 

 

Professor Alan Livingston, Principal of University Colllege Falmouth, said, “The College is delighted to be working with Mazorca  in this ground-breaking initiative to explore the extension of the Hidden Art franchise beyond London.”

  

Dr Katie Bunnell, leader of the Research Cluster: Digital Technology in 3D Production, said, “University College Falmouth’s design researchers are very excited about the opportunities that Hidden Art Cornwall will create for collaboration with professional designer-makers, and particularly those interested in the use of digital technologies, in creating innovative design processes and products.”
