Working with Amy Lawrence – Week 3

For this years Blaze Festival, a group of Artists will be working with professional curator Amy Lawrence to produce artwork in preparation for an exhibition in October.

They will be working together over weekly sessions, and will be blogging about each session as it takes place!

Week 3 – Written by Fern Nicholas

This weeks workshop encouraged me to think outside the box, engage with my environment and to be open to change.

I learnt that chance has an important role to play in what we create and that we should be open to experimentation and not be scared of failure.

Sometimes life goes by so fast we don’t have a chance to appreciate it so it’s important to give ourselves a little time to stop and absorb the world.

Here are some photographs that I took throughout the session, and also here is a video piece that me and Sophie made, that we then projected onto the floor.
