final final podcast Mavis Lok and Sepideh Zolfaghari

From studio sessions to class workshops, the design school experience holds great memories and foundations of many creatives. However, with the pandemic, students around the world were taken away access to spaces and resources. In this episode, we sat with two Kingston School of Art students, Ruby and Ellis to learn about their experience of what's like being a design student during the pandemic and their collaborative campaign, A Message Of Protest.

A Message Of Protest is a campaign made in collaboration with Ruby Betts, Ellis Tree, Pause or Pay and What's Happening KSA.
