Clio Hadjigeorgiou – Κυπριώτικο Σκετς / [kipri’otiko skets] / Cypriot Sketch

Cypriot dialect was first broadcast in the media through radio in 1950. Via three stories by Andreas Koukkides, Cypriot Sketch highlights some cultural and linguistic elements of Cypriot dialect. The language barrier is no longer an obstacle but a communication challenge. Compound words, proverbs and phrases are translated visually and in a playful manner. Considerable linguistic borrowing happened as a glossary of loanwords shows at the end of the book; the words are all taken from the transcribed stories and are translated into the related languages of the dialect.

BA GRAPHIC DESIGN

Contextual Design – BA2 S2 2026

with Adeline Mollard

Genius Loci, or the spirit of the place, refers to the unique identity or essence of a location. In architecture, this principle suggests that the specific characteristics of a place should be reflected and extended in a design. In the case of the second-year graphic design students, they have applied this principle to communication projects focused on promoting or extending the identity of a particular place through design. Their work likely explores how to visually capture and communicate the essence of a space, using graphic design elements that resonate with the architectural features or history of the place.

Visual Identity – BA2 S2 2026

with Adeline Mollard

As part of the visual identity course with Adeline Mollard, the students developed a visual identity based on a randomly drawn business card. By appropriating a graphic element and its title, each project offers a singular interpretation of it. Each proposal also involves the selection of a tool linked to the associated event (tattoo machine, sander, lithography equipment, etc.), used as a conceptual and graphic extension of the project. The identity is deployed across a range of formats, from business card to F4 size, including posters, flyers, business cards, as well as an animated poster.

BA PHOTOGRAPHY

Staged Photography – 2026

with Charlotte Krieger

Unseen This course introduces students to the creation of a seven-image series built around the theme Unseen. They will learn to combine set design, characters, and lighting to produce strong, coherent staged images. Through a practical and technical approach, the course develops their ability to conceive and manage a complete photographic project, direct models, work with natural and artificial light, and collaborate under conditions similar to professional editorial or commercial shoots. Students will refine their photographic vision while preparing for the creative and technical demands of the industry.
