A Northern Tale

I went to a friends show recently called A Northern Tale from skipping with bacon.

There were 5 artist showing their work all from the Fine Art course at the uni.

The it was in the upstairs room at LS6 cafe, so it was the right number of people showing their work, it was also a nice variety of work that was different but not so far removed it was a jumble sale.

The fact it was in a sace that's not specifically used for exhibiting art was nice, it wasn't all white walls and it created a more accessable atmosphere. The space is used for things like pilates classes etc so during the week of showing their work the artists held several events i the space like beer mat designing wokshops, burlesque life drawing etc which I thought was a really nice idea 'cause it brought people to the show that wouldn't necessarily have gone, bringing in a different audience.
