My name is Sarah O’Connell and I am a Visual Communications Student. I’ve always had a great interest in art and design growing up. I have a keen interest in editorial design and typography. I have thoroughly enjoyed my time studying Visual Communications and it has helped me develop my creative skills.

My final year project ‘Behind the Bargain’ takes a look at the negative impact fast fashion has on people and the environment. I chose to create a magazine that appeals to girls and shows the problem and what we can do to fix it and be more sustainable and develop a good relationship with our clothes.
