'Burning the candle at both ends'
November 2009
The Department of the Environment, Heritage and Local Government
(DoEHLG) in conjugation with the Department of Design in the School of
Art, Design and Printing devised a project whose aim was to encourage
students, especially first year students, to be mindful of the dangers
of fire as they move from living at home into rented
accommodation. This digital media project was carried out by 3rd year
visual communication students.
Áine Brady, TD, Minister for Older People and Health Promotion
recognised the emerging talent of visual communication students in
Mountjoy Square on Thursday afternoon, the 26th of November. Aisling
MacNamara and Ana Lago were presented with the winning award for their
project ‘Risky Roomies’, shown above. Runners up were David Baxter
and Ciaran Murphy for their project ‘Flaming Meadows’, below.
