GENESIS PARTNERS WITH EDINBURGH COLLEGE OF ART TO SHOWCASE STUDENT EVENT ‘EXHIBITION: COORDINATED

Genesis Motor UK is proud to support Edinburgh Collage of Art where an exciting showcase event – Exhibition: Coordinated – took place at Genesis Studio Edinburgh over 1 – 3 May.

The event featured the designs and final garments of the second-year students, and visitors were able to view the students’ work up close in a stylish exhibition that showcased creativity, sustainability and craftsmanship on the second floor of Genesis Studio Edinburgh, in Multrees Walk- the heart of Edinburgh’s luxury fashion destination.

Over the years, the Genesis has had a long-standing affiliation with art through supporting unique artistic projects across the world. In the UK, Genesis partnered with Scottish artist Siobhan McLaughlin in 2024 to host an exhibition of her abstract-landscape artwork at Genesis Studio Edinburgh. Last year, Genesis entered a partnership with Tate Modern in London to facilitate a collaborative exhibition showcasing South Korean artist Do Ho Suh’s work of ‘The Genesis Exhibition: Do Ho Suh: Walk the House’.

Michael Duncan, Studio Manager at Genesis Studio Edinburgh, said: “We are very pleased to be showcasing the talented work of the students at Edinburgh College of Art, as part of a year long partnership with Multrees Walk and the college. At Genesis, thoughtful design is at the heart of the brand’s identity, therefore we welcome the opportunity to celebrate creativity and craftsmanship in Genesis spaces. Our Studio was designed to be a versatile space that connects the community, and working with the local students is a fantastic way to do that.”

Professor Mal James, Programme Director, BA (Hons) Fashion at Edinburgh College of Art, commented: “To see our students’ designs and final garments exhibited within Genesis Studio Edinburgh is an amazing opportunity for our students. By taking their ideas out with the college classroom and directly into the city’s heart of fashion, allows their creativity to be seen in the same space as some of the world’s leading brands. This event is truly a celebration of their hard work, talent and innovation.”
