The event displayed work done by art and design students at New City College, which has campuses in Ilford and Chadwell Heath.

The exhibition, called Homeland, was the students' end of term show and was hosted at Space Ilford.

The college said the show gave students the chance to make decisions on how to display their creations, work to deadlines and work as part of a team.

It was organised by the college's creative department and took place last month.

Janet Smith, principal of the Epping Forest and Redbridge campuses, said: "The exhibition is such a positive opportunity for talented art and design students."

For many of the students, it was the first time they had the chance to exhibit their work to the community and Ms Smith added that the event provided them with "invalauble experience".
