The exhibition was part of the Summer Show 2025 series – an annual flagship event of BUV’s Faculty of Communications and Creative Industries. It was a cross-cohort student showcase, featuring outstanding projects from three academic years of students in the Contemporary Creative Practice and Professional Communication programs.
The theme Spectrum was inspired by the diversity of colors and forms within the light spectrum. It symbolized the students’ creativity, academic thinking, and individual identity. Each work reflected a harmonious balance between academic depth and practical creativity, forming the distinctive academic character of BUV students.
The visual concept of Spectrum was designed by Nguyen Ngoc Diep, a final-year student of the Contemporary Creative Practice program. Her inspiration came from her own learning journey at BUV, where she witnessed the inspiring diversity of skills, ideas, and perspectives among her peers.
“For us, this is not just an end-of-term showcase. It reflects both personal and collective journeys – the growth we have achieved, the challenges we have overcome, the friendships we have built, and the unforgettable lessons we have learned”, Diep shared.
Professor Rick Bennett, Vice-Rector and Vice-Chair of BUV’s University Council, emphasized that the university environment should serve as a “playground” for student ideas, where they can freely explore, create and learn from mistakes.
According to him, the works of BUV students not only demonstrate innate talent but also reflect open-minded and academically rich thinking – the very mindset the university encourages its students to cultivate. He expressed great pride in witnessing such creative achievements flourishing at BUV.
Dr. Paul D.J. Moody, Head of the Faculty of Communications and Creative Industries, highlighted that the showcased projects represented three years of tireless student effort, as well as the dedication and guidance of lecturers who helped bring these ideas to life.
“We hope this exhibition will give students greater confidence in expressing their talents while affirming the Faculty’s commitment to nurturing bold, inspiring, and future-ready creative individuals”, Dr. Moody said.
