In Contrast

Using their explorations in mark making and taking,as a contrast to their previous subjects,the visual excitement of architecture the first years experiment with contrast of scale,imagery and sensation.They continue to expand their drawing and collage skills.IMG_5604.JPGIMG_5613.JPG.jpegIMG_5611.JPG.jpegIMG_5612.JPG.jpegIMG_5600.JPG

Whatever the Season,

whatever the weather and whatever the time of day the sculpture, in the grounds of Bath School of Art and Design,never cease to fascinate

Always revealing something new.

Alumni-Anna Glasbrook

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!
