Human Condition Exhibition, Bath

Photo's from recent exhibition, showing two pieces.
Legacy- quilt and cushion looks at mental illness and takes direct quotes from sufferers of mental illness and looks at the idea of what can be passed down, air looms such as quilts and genetics.
Secrets- after all my kindly shared secrets i took them and explored using embroidery the aspect of what we hide and what we show
It was a really successful private show, very pleased and had some brilliant feedback and interest :D

Wooooooo!!

Feeling particularly happy today, yesterday some of my work was put on display in BathSpa university, the full piece is'nt even finished but it was great to see the work displayed, gave me lots of ideas for the full piece's overall presentation, also just secured an exhibition space for the end of February, so if any one is in Bath on the 21st head to Milsom Place for the opening night, you'll be able to see my work and also two other amazing artists (Florence Bowditch and Sarah Hunt) work. So now I have to crack on and get my underwear made and embroided! I'll keep you posted.

Ssshhh

So happy my dissertation is out of the way :D so now i can concentrate on the exciting stuff like my practical work.
Hoping to get an exhibition space for the end of February in Bath for a piece I'm working on currently, all about peoples secrets and the hidden and visible elements we each have, mainly themed around underwear.
I asked people to post anonymous secrets to me (if anyone who posted one is reading THANK YOU, i love every secret shared with me and i hope my work does justice to it's importance) so i could use them to inspire work, i also had endless bra's donated to work with soooo THANK YOU for them too anyone who kindly donated it to my good cause
