Welcome to the HKU exhibition. Here we proudly present a selection of works from six alumni who graduated in 2025. They represent the study programmes of Graphic Design, Product Design, Fashion Design, Design for Change and Innovation and the Master of Education in Arts.

The storm of the incomprehensible

In this exhibition, named ‘The storm of the incomprehensible’, a young generation of designers and creative thinkers present their vision on a world that is changing at incredible pace. How are they responding to this constant change? What are their priorities? And how can they find their voice in a time where technology is both a threat and a means of communication?

Exhibitors

In the Class of 25, you can see how a new generation of designers relate themselves to a future in which, among others, technology and our most intimate experiences merge into one. This generation has the courage to seek a grasp on the incomprehensible. And in this storm of inexplicability, they are not so much looking for answers, but for anchor points that might offer them a bit of a foothold.
