Hearts and Hands Exhibition
Today we opened the show with Collin Daniels of the Cape Peninsula University of Technology.
He spoke about their Hearts and Hands Exhibition which showcased the works of all Graphic design students, especially those who are completing their final year and who are ready to enter the workplace.
‘High school students from around the Western Cape were encouraged to attend the exhibition to learn about Graphic Design as a profession’
A collection of designs were on show. Namely websites, advertisements, promotional brochures, posters, banknotes, product packaging, labeling and bottle designs.
