Livia Roberts, 19, from Ipswich will have some of her films on show. Livia said: 鈥淚 did this course as part of my gap year as I鈥檓 off to study Physic at the University of Nottingham in September. When I found out my work had been chosen I just thought 鈥榥o way鈥�. It felt good getting this recognition. I guess long term I鈥檇 love to have a job that is a hybrid of physics and art. I鈥檇 also like to be a film director. I can鈥檛 make it to the exhibition 鈥� but I hope that the fact that my work is there, might help create a collaboration with someone else in the future.鈥�
