As part of a new collaboration for the university’s retail initiative, Re: So, the John Hansard Gallery will be selling products on-site. This exciting partnership allows gallery visitors to engage directly with the work of three talented graduates. The items available for purchase include typographic prints, one-of-a-kind bookmarks, and stickers featuring a bespoke motif.
John Hansard Gallery’s duty manager, Jessica Willis, shared her enthusiasm about the collaboration:
“We are delighted to be a new stockist of Re: So products and to support the work of early career creatives from Solent University. Re: So is a fantastic resource for students, and it’s so exciting to see the fresh and innovative talent that’s emerging through their programme.”
Bookmarks handmade by illustration graduate Liberty Baker are now available to buy at the gallery as part of this initiative. Ms. Baker expressed her gratitude for the opportunity:
“I’m super grateful to have this opportunity. There is a great beauty in the uniqueness of each piece because you never know what the final outcome will look like, which is exciting. I hope that this exposure will allow more people to be inspired to create their own.”
Providing a platform for emerging designers is the central aim of Re: So, showcasing the creativity and talent of Solent University graduates.
