degree show Tag

Hello,

We have spent the morning taking things down from P3, ripping out MDF walls and chucking out old bits of crap from the floor and moving those horrible white desks. It went down pretty quickly and it was weird to see the big concrete basement empty (you know what I mean if you have already been there.) Hmmm, I am sad about it finishing….it went by super fast 🙁

Onwards with the D&AD now!! (Don’t know what I’m talkin’ bout?! See here...)

I have just finished my image for Amelia’s Magazine Shelter Quilt Card project and now I will be getting on with the sustainabilty project too! I feel like I need to do things non-uni related.

Anyway about that mysterious Advocate Art business card, I plucked up the courage to e-mail them about it, said thanks and all for coming. I got an e-mail from them saying thy’d love to see my work and the possibility of representing me!!! I was in AWE!!!!!!…..and screaming and jumping around. So I will update the news when I see them.

fairy cakes

pink cakes

After running around town today like a crazy lady I finally managed to find all the bits and pieces for my fairy cakes, we’re having a bake sale tomorrow at uni to raise funds for our degree show at the P3.

I was so inspired by yesterdays cake sale at the Amersham Arms I was like proper enthused making loads of different ones. After some trial and error I have decided just to use normal icing (erm it’s a really garish red instead of a pastely pink.) Here are some of the things that went wrong:

-I left them for a bit too long so they’re as hard as rocks. I could knock someone out with them.

-I messed up the first time when I was heating the chocolate in the pan, i was going to make some delicious chocolate buttercream and I was like “Yeah that’ll be fine it’s pretty easy…” and well it wasn’t good. NOO! I  should have put it in a bowl or summat instead… then I wasted even more cos the chocolate was a solid lump in the bowl so that didn’t turn out right.

So I’m a rubbish cook probably because it’s so time consuming and i’m well bloody impatient.

kinetica

I’ve been busy doing stuff for other people and not had the proper time to focus on my major project…ooops, it’s gona be long nights with coffee and Red Bull! I’ve really been enjoying my placement with Gia london helping them to design new pages for their website and it’s going well 🙂 plus using lush fabrics for the work too which has been fun.

We went to the Kinetica Art Fair last Saturday at P3 (Baker st) and there were some amazing stuff with art, sound and light fused together. There where some really beautifal pieces, the bird/arms work (see above) was creepy! It kept on moving very slowly in a jaunty way (i shudder…)Well worth checking out the website anyways.

We will also be having our degree show there in the Summer-ish so watch this space.xx
