Autism assemble is an exhibition which aims to show the skill and variety of art produced by autistic students at Kingston University, across all courses.

Autistic creatives have expressed time and time again how difficult it can be to make our way into the industry, feeling the need to hide our traits. But our differences to neurotypical artists means that we are capable of making some of the most unique and creative art you will see!

This exhibition is organised by Kingston University’s Autism Peer Network, which provides a community for autistic Kingston students to share their experiences. With the barriers we face in mind, we planned this exhibition to be as accessible and open to autistic students as possible.

All kinds of unfiltered creative output is on show, including fine art, illustration, film, animation and poetry.
