a most excellent teaching day at NUCA - starting with a professional practice session with year 2 textiles students. http://www.slideshare.net/l.bicknell/10-professional-practice-21-march-2011 this was really to begin to talk about the many ways to approach writing about your own work – starting with the idea of the question and thinking about the idea of context. it led onto discussing the 5,000 word report and how to embed it within your overall practice. the afternoon was spent with students who have entered the wallpaper competition – some superb ideas – they just need executing - finally an image to add to my picture file titled wonderful town planning and why the world is like it is
