Just finished hanging the show at
CraftCo in Southwold, Suffolk - it's the work of 8 students from the BA (Hons)Textile Design Course at Norwich
University of the Arts who have taken up the
invitation to show work within the CraftCo gallery.
The project set the students the task of developing their practice and steering
it towards the creation of objects of desire that will be for sale. The
wide ranging work on show is testament to the creative minds of the individuals
involved alongside the student centred approach to design that is embedded
within the Textile Course at NUA. You'll be
able to see items that have creative and practical value with innovative
thinking at their core. The activities involved includes spinning,
weaving, knitting, embroidery, printing. The work in the exhibition is
affordable and accessible, I would recommend coming to see these designers
at the start of what will be exciting careers so you can say you saw them
first, while there why not buy while they are still affordable.

whatisinpetmince?
a great day of structural thinking on the MA Book Arts on
tuesday - some excellent folding and conceptual bookness went on. http://www.slideshare.net/l.bicknell/001-a-what-is-book-bookness-2016
as part of Southbank Centre Young Adult Literature Weekender some students
from Camberwell MA Book Arts - Muqiu, Lena and Charlotte are running a workshop
at the South Bank Centre - it will be good - go get involved.
I'm working for Open College of the Arts on a really interesting project
- supporting final year MA Fine Art students in creating an online exhibition
- thinking of using www.isthisitisthisit.com
as an example of good practice.
thursday saw the induction workshop and day at NUA - the whole week
exists as an instagram feed #gotextiles check it out.
meanwhile the film The Brothers Grimsby manages to envisage and then enact scenarios
that I could not even conceive of - this is not necessarily a good thing but it
is a series of open mouth is-that-really-happening-moments
