Good news – selected for the Shape Exhibition!

Earlier in the year I submitted this work for consideration to the Shape Exhibition – see here for details. Well I received an email yesterday letting me know that my work had been selected!

The exhibition theme is “My life” in relation to disability and so the work I prepared and exhibited for the Interim  show was well suited.

The Shape Open exhibition is held in two venues and at two times:

• The first exhibition is held at Yinka Shonibare’s Project space, ‘Guest Projects’ at 1 Andrews Road, London, E8 4QL and will run from the 5th to 20th of February 2016, with a private view held on February 4th from 6.30pm to 8.30pm.
• The second is held at Shape Arts Gallery, 155 The Street, Westfield Stratford City Shopping Centre, E20 1EN from February 17th March 24th 2016.

Chuffed – but I have also learned something: sometimes it is worth investing in printing and mounting final images even when the exhibition context is unclear because once they are created there is a motivation to explore and secure opportunities to get them seen.
