Jody Mulvey, founder of SAD GRADS 2020, introduces the community-building platform she created in the first lockdown and profiles four inspirational graduate projects. When the UK went into lockdown for the first time in March 2020 I was in my final year studying Fine Art MA (Hons) at Edinburgh College of Art. I had just a week to grab my things from my studio and say goodbye to the life in Edinburgh that I had loved so dearly. I thought it would only be for a few weeks and packed just enough clothes to last me that long. With this impending period of isolation came the uncertainty surrounding completing final hand-ins. Slowly but surely, degree shows across the UK were either cancelled or placed online. At the time, it felt as if my world was collapsing - the thing I'd worked towards, this celebration of all I'd managed to achieve through my degree, wasn't going to happen. I began speaking to other art students that I knew from across the UK and was reminded that I wasn't alone - every art student in the UK (and probably the world) was experiencing the same disheartenment, the same panic at the encroaching abyss of graduate life. Something about this overwhelming experience being so universal made me realise that by helping each other, we can get through this together. I wanted to create that sense of unity; to find something positive out of a negative situation. That was why I decided to start SAD GRADS 2020.
