Symbols and Symbolism, Lower Foyer Gallery, March 2012, was a very successful exhibition curated by Sofia Khan and Kerry Lindsell, two final year Fine Art students at Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art and Design. The exhibition included many artists from different disciplines throughout the art school. One of my pieces was included in this show.
I received a lot of positive feedback from showing my work at this event so I am very pleased to have been able to exhibit. It has also forwarded my planning for display and framing for the upcoming degree show. The print was pinned straight onto the wall, and I enjoyed how close people were getting to the work to explore the huge amount of detail included in it. What I was interested in as well was that people were not only looking closely at it from an aesthetic view but also to understand the fluidity of the piece through the use of the silk fabric. This is something I am considering for the degree show, how to maintain the loose flowing quality of the fabric with it still having a certain amount of formality and protection and luxury.
