Overview

The Body Art (Hons) course at the University for the Creative Arts in Canterbury is the degree that body art's creative community has been waiting for – built for the people who've always been drawn to this world and wanted somewhere that understood it (and them). It’s a different route into the industries you love, or a door into industries you didn’t know existed. It’s a place for you to be fiercely creative and completely yourself.
