HUNG UP BY STRING My first successful solo exhibition @ Empty Shop


HELLO MY FELLOW READERS!
Here is the follow-up post you have all been waiting for!!!
In late October I arranged with Empty Shop for a solo exhibition. Empty Shop are an interdependent non- profit organisation who provide a platform for all artist and opportunity’s to show their work or use their awesome gallery space. Empty Shop also have 10 artist studio spaces that I have been apart of for a year as a studio member this allows the gallery space to be used quit frequently on a work basis or exhibition’s.

(HUNG UP BY STRING)
Is an idea that started out years ago as an collaborated installation and has developed and progress everything that you see is my own design and has been hand made and produced with TLC. This whole installation was produced from scratch under a ultra Violette light to create a fantasy wonderland feel as like most of my work is fused with fluorescent mediums.

OVERALL THIS EXHIBITION TOOK 6 WEEKS TO PRODUCE & TOOK THREE DAYS  TEN TILL TEN ON LADDERS TO PUT UP, WAS OPEN TO PUBLIC OVER  THREE DAYS 18TH 19TH 20TH NOVEMBER & ALL TOGETHER I HAD 400 PEOPLE THROUGH THE DOOR AND EVEN SOLD SOME OF MY WORK.  IT WAS A TRULY WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE AND WOULD LIKE TO THANK EMPTY SHOP AND ALL THE PEOPLE WHO WAS INVOLVED & ALL THOSE WHO HELPED. THANK YOU GUYS

WHEN IS THE NEXT ONE LOL!!!
