The Test Site Degree Show marks a significant milestone as the first graduating cohort of our new and innovative MA in Expanded Photography. This fresh, forward-thinking course builds on our long-standing reputation as a pioneer in photographic education. One that has consistently embraced experimentation, critical thinking, and interdisciplinary approaches. Rooted in both theory and practice, the Expanded Photography MA reflects our commitment to redefining photography’s role in contemporary visual culture.

In this blog, we caught up with two graduating students who tell us a bit more about their projects and reflect on their journey and experience through the course.
