Day six: I visited the Yorkshire Art Space and had a tour around the artist studios by Rachel Dodd, she told us a bit about the studios and what types of artist are there and what they do. Also how much it costs for them to rent a studio.
We then visited the Emilie Taylor's ceramics exhibition and I found them quite interesting because they were different but had a personal meaning to what she drew on the pots and plates. This is contemporary pottery as the images depicted life now. Like tower blocks and their was ever lads in hoodies on one pot in her studio. She told us a little bit about her background and how she didn't know what to do when she left college and how she started experimenting with her art. She also showed us around her studio and showed us all the things she needed to make the pots. We checked out some of the work she was doing at the moment.
In the afternoon I started to plan out my Arts Awards part A and tried to type it up. I still need to think a bit more on this though. I researched Faunagraphics work (a female mural/graffiti artist) so that I could think of questions to ask the artist (Sarah) if I can interview her for part C of the Arts Award. Mostly about her background and work. After this I went out to the Millennium Gallery to visit a water-colour exhibition and write notes about it to share in a little review on my blog.
