A big thank you to everyone who came to support the studios last weekend, and for braving the rain on Sunday. It was great to welcome people into my new studio for the first time.
Anyone interested in the book binding, book making and screen printing workshops I run from my studio should click here for more information.
‘Place, Face, Space’ was the recent exhibition held at Bath Artists’ Studios Gallery during our open studios event 21st – 23rd September. It was a group exhibition showcasing work produce by studio holders.
My contribution included screen printed wooden books and bound paper sculptures.
Here are some photos of the Folding Cosmos exhibition I am organising to bring to Bath from Japan. The exhibition will launch on the 27th April and run until the 5th May 2012. During this time there will be the opportunity to attend Japanese tea ceremonies and contribute to our peace tree with origami and messages. I will exhibit textile and book pieces along side the established Japanese exhibition which I will develop in response to a period of research based on the tea ceremony, traditional Japanese dress and symbolism in design. I have started this research and am finding fascinating, can’t wait to start developing the work!

This project will be supported by Arts Council England and The Great Britain Sasakawa Foundation
Happy New Year!
I love this time of year, apart from getting chance to spend some valuable time with family and friends, it’s great time for feeling optimistic, renewed and full of hope for the year ahead… this year is no exception. I am really looking forward to starting the research and work for the planned Japanese exhibition in April, as well as filling my diary with lots of other exciting projects.
