In January, we sat down over a cup of coffee and rye toast to discuss the design for our posters: Blue lines, minimalist design and a mestrual cup we could not help but add. A few days later, we were putting them up in art shops, cafés and around campus.

We only faced a tiny bump in the road when our advertisement was blocked due to “nudity” issues on Instagram - seems like two dots and a couple of semi-circles is still enough to cause trouble in a world with atomic bomb threaths and a devestating climate crisis. But we are happy to see that a bit of linework did not scare you away. Thank you to everyone who applied for the internship. It means a lot to see so many of you interested in working with us, and it was humbling to receive so many creative applications.

Now, we are happy to finally announce the new interns! Despite all being based in London, you are looking at a team of multiple nationalities: Hungarian, British and Norwegain. For our first meeting we focused on getting to know each other, and surpirsed them with a questionnaire for them to fill out so we can all get to know them better.

Meet:

TONJE

BEISLAND.

Another Norwegian based in London. She spends her days studying Liberal Arts with a major in Comparative Literature at King’s College.

With a passion for correcting and editing texts, she will be in charge of sub-editing - an essential role to secure the quality of each piece we publish.

In terms of background in the field, she has been awarded “Garborgprisen” and first prize for her contribution to Unge Forskere in the category of Arts and Humanities for her extended essays.

ZSOFI

MAYER.

The Budapest-native that will be will be producing the majority of our illustrations on and off the site.

You might recognise her name as she has been doing freelance graphic design for us in the past, but she is now ready to take on a more committed role as one of our official interns.

Besides having studied Art direction for one year at Kingston University, she is taking evening classes in graphic design and will be starting a BA in graphic design at UAL this autumn.

Jolie will make sure you have more NUET content to enjoy each week, as she will be bringing you both a humorous tone and analysing opinion pieces every Sunday. Her pieces will range from “travel advice and food reviews to self-help and social commentary.”

Jolie is currently taking a break from studying chemistry after returning from her last year spent in Sidney, Australia.

At the moment she is working part-time as a bartender, carrying out her creative endeavours like writing and taking photographs for her webiste, and now also interning at NUET.
