Award-winning photographer praised a broad approach

Former student, Felicity Hammond, has earned a number of high-profile accolades since graduating. She has been a nominee for the Saatchi New Sensations Prize and she won the RCA Metro Prize for her work ‘Restore to Factory Settings’. In 2016, she was showcased as part of the British Journal of Photography’s International Photography Awards.

Her work has been exhibited widely, including stints at the South Kiosk Gallery at Unseen in Amsterdam, at the Saatchi Gallery in London and at the Lowry in Manchester.

She recently praised the University and her course for encouraging such a broad approach to photography. She said: “I chose to study photography in this context as I always felt I wanted to use photography as an artist… I wanted my work rooted within that medium.”
