Hidden Creatives

“Hidden Scientists/Hidden Creatives” is an annual poster exhibition highlighting the vital work of under-represented women in STEM and Graphic Design.

For this exhibition, the second-year TU973 B.A. (hons) Visual Communication Design students have honoured the work of underrepresented and marginalised women in science and the creative fields. By designing original posters by interpreting the style and aesthetics of female designers, the students created a series of posters highlighting the critical work of key female figures in science. The students completed this assignment in their Design and Career Management module.

This project is a collaboration between the TU Dublin School of Art and Design, the School of Biological, Health and Sports Sciences, the Sustainability and Research Hub, and the Research, Ethics, and Integrity Office. It is supported by the Office of Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion and the Faculty of Sciences and Health.
