This is the first exhibition I have ever been in/ helped set up with a small group of people.

 

I completed my exhibition by asking an art group called Circuit Cambridge, who are based at Wysing Arts Centre and Kettles Yard to help. For the workshops we had an artist come in to help us with the ideas and then for the exhibition we were going to be part of a large group exhibition called Glitch Art with other young art groups from the art centres and Firstsite gallery in Colchester.

 

I helped with all the setting up of the workshops and then being involved in making the work. I also helped with the setting up at the beginning  of the show for all the groups and then created and lead on setting up for our group. One example of the work I needed to do was with the way we laid out the artwork as  it was really dark, so I came up with the idea of putting the lights under the artwork and then went and found some lights from the venue.

 

The theme of the exhibition was digital work, that is why every piece of artwork has some kind of edited image involved in it. On the day their was a range of different workshops for people to do and  later, their was a band performing.

 

I'm happy that I was able to be a main lead in the exhibition because I have never done anything like that before.
