Global Design Graduate Show in collaboration with GUCCI is open to all undergraduate, graduate and postgraduate art and design disciplines for those that have graduated between October 2021 - August 2022 (Southern hemisphere graduating after October 2020).

The Global Design Graduate Show 2022 is your chance to share your creative work alongside your peers from around the world and get it judged by industry leaders.

It is your chance to curate your creative personality by mixing research with 2D/3D development documenting all the different creative and technical development stages up to the final outcome. It would be good to know your personal creative journey, whether by photo or film.

We also encourage you to produce a short self-curated Instagram stories style film to introduce your work to the world in your own words and visuals.

We will be launching exciting graduate support led activities, webinars, masterclasses and releasing practical information on how to experiment, curate and upload your creative journey onto the platform, allowing you to express the diversity and raw creative process.

The Creative Portfolio Brief

Upload your end of year project.

- As well as your final completed project, we'll also be assessing your concept and creative process - the entire journey from A to Z is just as exciting as the final outcome.

- Visualise your creative journey - you should explore and be innovative in how you express your creative process and can upload artwork and designs, development and in-between stages with a mix of research moodboards, sketches, illustrations, photographs and digital renderings etc. alongside digital gif and embedded films from Vimeo or Youtube.

- We would love it (not compulsory) if you can film and produce a short Instagram-style story (between 1 to 3 minutes)where you present yourself and your work to a global audience, explaining your thoughts and the process behind your final project.
