Make No Bones – BA Fine Art Degree Show 2025

We are 53 final year fine art students graduating from the University of Leeds this summer. This is our degree show.

Over the past year, we have stripped things back and dug deep.

Make No Bones is a refusal to soften or obscure. We want to surface our truths, to show the foundation of who we are as artists. Our exhibition is both an excavation of three to four years of study and our new construction.
