Students at Middlesex University put on one of the largest student art exhibitions ever held by a UK university over the weekend.

The Middlesex University Art and Design Degree Show started in the Old Truman Brewery, Brick Lane, on Friday and ends today.

Over the weekend the show attracted more than 5,000 visitors.

It featured a fashion show, artwork, sculptures, photographs and videos by 500 students.

Among those showcasing their work was illustration student Hector Lloyd, 27, who created a two meter high sculpture.

Mr Lloyd said: β€œIt’s exciting that it has all come together. I am excited that my work has finally been on public display.”
