Description
James Hollerbach’s work from the final year of his degree used the 'Filthy Gorgeous London' theme. This culminated in the small collection of one-off garments that were introduced at his graduation show in June 2011.
He graduated with a 2:1 on this BA (Hons) in Surface Design at the London College of Communication (University of the Arts). James thoroughly enjoyed working with so many other creative people, which he also does in his current employment at the London Tate galleries. This role has also given him the opportunity to perform 10 minute talks to the Tate Modern visitors. He hopes to have a teaching career in primary schools.
