Scheduled to have over 50 events across the globe, with representation in over 12 countries, this celebration of sculpture will have a projected audience of over 30,000 attendees.

- Untitled (The Triptych) by Tamsin Corrigan whodepicts the process and interaction of clay, exploring the idea of the medium as a vivifier.
- Work in progress by Amelia Seren Roberts who conveys howfragmented and distorted human figures often imply, paradoxically, both presence and absence of the individual.
- Untitled by Georgina Fuller whose plaster on canvas explores the material of plaster, looking at its malleable form and texture.
- The Boat de-wheeled by Craig Parr who explores the symbolisation of a boat within context.
- Growth 2015 by Alexandra Brady who seeks to evoke senses beyond the visual in abstracted forms.
- A Little Crêpe-y and Hard to Swallow and Rock Bottom by Rebecca Doms whose polymer clay sculptures translate the symptoms of depression into tactile physicality.

and University event organiser, said: “I am proud to have been invited to put together a concept for this global event. The ISC has a long history of supporting student practice and I have taken this opportunity to promote the work of several students on the Fine Art Programme, whose work articulates the ambitions of Sculpture within contemporary worldwide practice.
“The students involved in this exhibition contribute to the ethos of a making culture that utilises both cutting edge digital technologies as well as more traditional modes of practice: asserting themselves as independent thinkers within an ever expanding creative community.”
