Curator Emma Paragreen said "The students are to be congratulated for their commitment shown in bringing this show together, and Sheffield Assay Office were delighted to celebrate with them their achievements and award a prize".
Assay Master, Ashley Carson said "The sketch books and the sample were most interesting, it was great to see progression of an idea, experimentation and development of the work clearly and there was plenty of explanation".
A prize was awarded at the opening event at Trafalgar Warehouse, Sheffield to Tyler Stothard- Asher by Guardian Chris Knight accompanied by fellow Guardian’s Duncan Campbell and James Frampton.
Tyler is the winner of the Graduation Prize for Execution in Design for his work Intangible: The threads that bind us all. He wins a prize of £300.

On behalf of the Office, congratulations to them all, for their future careers.
