are developing a new piece and as part of their development they have been
looking at how clothes are made within a global context – I went to a sort of
sharing of our research so far session at the Wolsey Theatre on Saturday – not bad –
some interesting ideas were thrown up about labelling in clothes in relationship
to food, the lack of direct health issues around purchasing cheap clothes (within the
manufacturer of clothes it is other people’s health that is at risk). http://www.wolseytheatre.co.uk/shows/pulse14-world-factory-the-shirt/
Later New Art Club http://newartclub.org/ were
as excellent as expected and a bit more – I think that I was crying with
laughter within minutes and the last monologue was so beautiful - making us all evaluate the whole show – thank you. Meanwhile back to assessment today with a
quick break for year 2 textile design student’s introduction to year 3 at NUA. http://www.slideshare.net/l.bicknell/introduction-to-year-3-35664784 Then off to see the Foundation show at Wensum
Lodge in Norwich
