Postgraduate Degree Show 2009

Welcome to the show! If you were around Paphos this month you would have seen our show flyer or you may even have heard us on 'Rock FM'! Unfortunately you can't taste the food or drink the wine but this is the centre piece of the spread (in my opinion as I made them!) :

The show started at 4.00, and went all the way through to 10.00 (officially, 2.30 unofficially). We had about 60-70 people through, some of whom bought work.

The following images are of my studio space (as it's my blog!) and the work in it. This space is also shared so I will mention now, the sculptures aren't mine, nor is the large egg painting at the end! Enjoy....
(being added after I have been for a swim! Watch this space.....)

Nearing the end....

Well, today has been busy. The studios are empty, there is a pile of rubbish the size of a mountain outside, everyone has dust in their eyes from sweeping up and the exhibition flyers have all been handed out.

Yes it' s nearly the end of this particular journey folks. Tomorrow we paint everything with a coat of white emulsion, Wednesday and Thursday the work goes up on the walls, Friday is our assessment day and Saturday it all opens to the public (if you happen to be in Cyrpus, the show opens at 4pm!).

Clearing out has been quite strange, I think everyone is sad it's all coming to a close. I will post a cyber-exhibition on here once it is up for all of you who can't make it in person (at the moment that's everyone I know!).

Here's a little taster.....
