Bright New Artworks Transform the Ashby Building
The school of EEECS is thrilled to announce the installation of stunning new artworks by local artists Jacky Sheridan and David J. McMillan across floors 7 to 10 of the Ashby Building.
These vibrant pieces now fill the stairwells and corridors of the School of Electronics, Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EEECS), creating an inspiring environment for students, staff, and visitors alike.

The artworks celebrate the people and technology that make EEECS extraordinary. From iconic imagery such as the electric DeLorean (converted to electric in our EEE lab!), to portraits of famous scientists and engineers, and themes of connectivity, cybersecurity, AI, and robotics, the designs reflect the innovation and creativity at the heart of our school. Every corridor tells a story, and every stairwell is now a gallery of ideas and inspiration.

This ambitious project took over a year to bring together, and the results speak for themselves. The bold colours and dynamic compositions have transformed these spaces into something truly special, making the Ashby Building not just a place to learn, but a place to experience art and technology in harmony.
