BiG Buzz : Unveiling Creativity at UBD

The much anticipated launch of this year’s UBD Spectrum exhibition lived up to expectations with a stellar round of graduating work that showcased the growing consideration of art’s application towards the creative industry. As Artificial Intelligence (AI) and technology progress has rapidly developed over the last decade, many students displayed a keen interest in the way they could combine or utilise digital art and technology with more like a startup sales pitch — Virtual Reality technology and 3D modeling designed to help people access the world of 3D printing easier and provide immersive design experiences for clients.

Luqman Hakim’s FusionTable, addressed the need for adaptability in modern furniture design. Najwa Amzah’s Brunei in the 1980’s was a glorious exploration of traditional stop motion animation techniques and production. Rui Oliveria Lopes, Senior Assistant Professor in the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences and Spectrum’s Exhibition Coordinator, praised the graduating class of this years exhibit themed “Unveil” and said that the annual event has even gotten high praise from visiting Singaporean counterparts last year.
