Generator Projects’ Dissertation Prize Publication | 2026

A 2-in-1 Publication from our first Dissertation Prize.

In 2025 the committee reviewed Dissertations from Contemporary Art Practice and Art & Philosophy students to award writers prizes alongside the visual art prizes we award every Degree Show. The dissertation prize included the opportunity to expand upon their dissertation and produce a new body of work. This years prize winners were Christopher Ivor Adams and Poppy Gannon.

The Dissertation Prize Publication was initiated by Persephone Russel and the 2026 Publication was led by Clover Christopherson.
