RCA2023 Battersea & Kensington
Encompassing over 1,300 postgraduate students across the RCA’s four schools – Architecture, Arts & Humanities, Communication and Design – as well as our Intelligent Mobility Design Centre students, RCA2023 at Battersea and Kensington features an international cohort of emerging artists, designers, architects and creative practitioners.
Each programme has taken a different approach to what you will see and experience – some presenting a collection of finished works, others sharing the thinking behind a process, or engaging visitors through talks and activities.
30 June – 3 July
Open to the public from 12–6pm daily, with a late opening on Friday 30 June until 7.30pm

Discover students, collections and events through four overarching themes that contextualise the work on the platform within the here and now. They are tied together by the suffix -ness, which is used with an adjective to say something about its state, condition, or quality of being.
To what extent can we trust historic accounts?
Are all speculative futures utopian?
Is it possible to consider the present without knowing what came before and what may be on its way?
