Hello and welcome to sunny September!
August for me was a whirlwind, with fun, not a lot of sun and a lot of late nights and early mornings spent pulling everything together for my solo show, which is now merely days away!
There is a publication I have made, which coincides with the exhibition, which has been a feat of determination and mild despair! Starting with minimal knowledge of InDesign, the software programme from which it was created, and little time I have somehow managed (with the priceless help of a friend for one 8 -hour stint of design work!) I can barely believe I pulled it off, and was shaking when I opened the box on arrival of said publications.
My advice from this is Always believe you can make things happen, but give yourself time to make it so!
If you are in London it would be great to see you there! Lakeside Studios is holding an Open Studios event on Saturday 16th, as part of the wider national Open House event. This will allow people to nose around the iconic brutalist building that is home to Lakeside. It is also a coup for me, as my exhibition is based on the artists that are based at Lakeside, so it couldn’t be a more poignant show for those who want to learn more about the building and what it is used for.
