Paul SmithGUEST
She looked amazing because she made all her own clothes, and the cut and shape and the quality.
Paul SmithGUEST
And she had studied at the Royal College of Art as quite a young student at a very interesting time that sort of crossed over with the Hockney, Peter Blake era.
Paul SmithGUEST
Uh, not at exactly the same time, but ei- either side of her.
Paul SmithGUEST
And, and, um, the interesting thing, they, they studied couture clothes, which was, which i- anybody who doesn't know that, what that is, is it's really understanding about how things are made, the understanding of shape, cut, uh, balance, proportion, uh, quality.
Celia JoiceyGUEST
So that immediacy and for artists...
Celia JoiceyGUEST
There are histories, so tapestry existed at the Royal College of Art for a long time at Edinburgh College of Art, and we've encountered painters who were at art schools seeing what the tapestry weavers were creating and being intrigued.
Celia JoiceyGUEST
And I think Claire will no doubt speak to it, but one of the interesting things is scale.
Celia JoiceyGUEST
It's an ability for an artist to extend their practice.
Chris ConnorsGUEST
And I left.
Chris ConnorsGUEST
And at the same time when I left, that's when I met my design partners from Royal College of Art.
Chris ConnorsGUEST
And we formed our label, our design and fashion label.
Chris ConnorsGUEST
And then I went into this whole universe of aesthetic and design.

AmeliaHOST
Hi, Poppy.
Anna Fernsten NilénHOST
Her works often use very familiar materials, carpets, concrete, ceramics, metal, but we arrange them into environments that can feel both strangely familiar and slightly unsettling.
Anna Fernsten NilénHOST
Mata studied at the Fynska Kunstakademien here in Denmark, the University of Texas at Austin, and the Royal College of Art in London, where she received her MFA in sculpture in 2015.
Anna Fernsten NilénHOST
In 2023, she completed a post-master program focused on art in public spaces here in Denmark.
Anna Fernsten NilénHOST

Martha HviidGUEST
I want to go to an English speaking place and like a really good school.
Martha HviidGUEST
And I didn't actually enjoy living in the States at the time.
Martha HviidGUEST
So I applied for a couple of schools in London and got in and I ended up choosing the Royal College of Art, which was the best choice.
Martha HviidGUEST
I loved it.
Anna Fernsten NilénHOST
You're working across sculpture and video, installation, sound, 3D animation, and Stine creates this immersive, fantastic world, often seductive worlds where technology, the human body, and nature collide.
Anna Fernsten NilénHOST
First studied interaction design, and that means that you're looking at how people interact with technology and digital products, at Kolding School of Design before moving to London to the Royal College of Art.
Anna Fernsten NilénHOST
Her work has been exhibited internationally at the ARKEN, SMK i Trondheim, Esbjerg Kunstmuseum, also in London, New York, and beyond.
Anna Fernsten NilénHOST
I think Russia as well.

Stine DejaGUEST
Um, and I think, like, we met, um, actually first time in the design school of Kolding, and then we both moved to, uh, London, but we weren't actually, like, close friends or anything in, in Kolding.
Stine DejaGUEST
Uh, we never started any projects there.
Stine DejaGUEST
It wasn't until we were both done with the Royal College of Art that she reached out to me, uh, and then we met up in a cafe in Hackney, and we talked about this potential collaboration we could try, and she'd brought, like, these small models of some, like, skin moving.
Stine DejaGUEST
And I was thinking, "Okay, I'll go home and think about that," and then it was like a, a ping-pong.
speaker_0HOST
First, fashion and material.
speaker_0HOST
A Royal College of Art graduate called Oliver Stiff has been making sculptural furniture from Vivienne Westwood deadstock fabrics.
speaker_0HOST
The hermal chair, the socialite chair, pieces that carry the language of couture into furniture form.
speaker_0HOST
This is not upcycling as a PR move.
Deborah Frances-WhiteHOST
Her work challenges the male gaze, promoting instead an unapologetic, humorous, and at times grotesque femininity.
Deborah Frances-WhiteHOST
She received an M.A. in sculpture from the Royal College of Art, London.
Deborah Frances-WhiteHOST
She was the recipient of the Sky Arts Visual Art Award in 2024, the Henry Moore Foundation Artist Award in 2020, and many other awards.
Deborah Frances-WhiteHOST
If I read them all out, she would think she was dead and that she was listening.
Chloe SoGUEST
But then I decided that I was really early in my career and I wanted to build again and explore the design and making side of things.
Chloe SoGUEST
So then I came over to the UK to do this master's in innovation design engineering, the dual degree between Imperial and the Royal College of Art.
Chloe SoGUEST
And so that's where I continued to explore novel materials, sustainability, circularity concepts.
Chloe SoGUEST
And through our final year group project, we developed Pulpatronics.

Mili TharakanHOST
How much does having these names attached to Popatronics actually change what's possible and what is the leverage they give you?
Chloe SoGUEST
Yeah, definitely.
Chloe SoGUEST
So I think for us, like, again, we've been very lucky that, you know, we're not a typical uni spin out, you know, we own all the IP, you know, Imperial Royal College of Art, they don't own anything.
Chloe SoGUEST
But again, because their enterprise networks are so strong, we've been able to actually leverage that.
Nick WatsonGUEST
I wanted to design cars.
Nick WatsonGUEST
I wanted to go to the Royal College of Art in London.
Nick WatsonGUEST
So I thought, how do I get there? You obviously need a great foundation.
Nick WatsonGUEST
So I started to look at schools in France.
