Utensils

All the first years across the Crafts Cluster currently working on a Utensils brief - " a tool , implement or container for practical use" . They have a few weeks making before their assessment and there's some great work
developing, today I was really inspired by Bill's wall full of scissor tools ... Looking forward to seeing how this body of work develops over the next few weeks ..

HE exhibition

Well, we are back for the New Year and we have started the way we mean to go on!! First Big job Dell had when we got back was to co-ordinate an exhibition of graduate work at our Folly Lane campus. The building has recently had a face lift as such and now we have a permanent exhibition space.

Del needed to oversee all the exhibition but I got the chance to sit down with Anna, one of last years graduates from CAA, and select some work for the display case. I really love Anna's work, and have to remind myself to take it off!!!

Well, here's to the New Year!!
