TWO MALE SILK WORMS WANTED THE AFFECTIONS OF A FEMALE SILK WORM...

On another recent trip to London, I visited the Curve at the Barbican and noticed the housing complex just next door. It reminded me of the MA show at the Royal College that I visited way back in February.


We also saw the Bird installation by Celeste Boursier-Mougenot which I felt was part Art, part Natural History documentary. The Birds were totally captivating as they few around and tried tirelessly to build their nests on the slippery surface of the electric guitars. They were so comfortable with the on lookers one few onto my friend Megan's shoe. Personally I think they thought it was a little worm but chose not to voice this as I thought she might think this a comment on her taste in shoes.

...SHE SAID THAT SHE WANTED WHICH EVER ONE COULD WIN THE RACE.


BUT THEY ENDED IN A TIE!

BUTTON UP.

For my work I photograph people asleep on the train so I thought I would share a few of the images I then work from.
These were all from a day in London when I went to the Quilts Exhibition at the V & A. The exhibition was wonderful, I would definitely recommend it to anyone who enjoys craft, women's and social history. As a WI member and Art student I felt akin to both kinds of people attending. I also bought some lovely buttons.




SPILLAGE GOLF OF MEXICO STYLE.




I have just handed in my final assessment of the year so I have time for all the things I've been meaning to do, like upload onto here! So be prepared for it to get rather messy on here!



So, first things first. We had an exhibition. I honestly thought I had put our flyer up here but never mind. It was a huge success! We had lots of people turn up and a few bought some stuff. Here's a photo of the small display we had, mine is the black squares on the wall...they don't photograph very well at all.


That's me Mam and Dad. I'm really chuffed they got to see all our hard work.
