Alumni-Anna Glasbrook

amanda goode Leave a comment

Catching up with the super creative and colour fiend Anna Glasbrook,alumni of Bath School of Art and Design.
Watch out for Anna at all the major shows in the coming years and watch this space as she reports back.

Images 1 &2: The Glow Panel was a commission for clients in Lewes nr Brighton, they wanted (and got!) a wow factor for their new entrance atrium, using edge lit material stitched through with neon ribbon
Images 3,4,5: Glow Bloks currently on show at Devon Guild until September when they are going to South Bank Centre as part of Design Nation Showcase ‘Light’.
Image 6: is detail from a piece now installed in a private home. stitching through layers of transparent film encased in a glass tower

I was super excited to be accepted as a member of Design Nation and then to be selected to show on their stand at Decorex this year (2015)

I also have commissions in Bristol and London and I’ve been shortlisted for
Friends of the Garden Award and in with the chance to work with a glass master craftsperson…fingers crossed!

In January we visited colleagues in Norway to confirm our exchange agreement and look at good practice.
They welcomed the first of our students there this month.
Thanks for letting us know of your safe arrival Sarah.
Watch out for posts from our happy(and excited) student.

We took a collection of student work over with us and while we were there we couldn’t resist photographing the pieces in this dramatic and beautiful setting.
Here are some outtakes.

Fabulous eh ?

Alumni Tanya Fryer has completed the commission she gained while still a student at Bath School of Art and Design.Textile designer’s are so versatile!

Since graduating Tanya has been hard at work completing the piece and the painting is now successfully installed in Southgate Car Park -1 to -2 in Bath UK.

Constructing their future.

amanda goode Leave a comment

While the 3rd yrs are hard at work,working towards their degree and final show,the 1st yrs are still on their decision making journey.
Which specialism to choose,what area to study next year ?

The students are just coming to the end of their construction module.This gives them an insight into knit,weave and fabric manipulation.

We look forward to helping them make their selection and shape their future.
