Glassware by Tim Rawlinson.
Ceramics and Glass took up most of the upper balcony at New Designers part one, pill curling against the railings in small exhibition spaces that brought home to me just how important it is to put together a really great eye catching main graduate exhibition: the Royal College of Art‘s small space did not show off work to anything like the standard that was seen at their own show and I would have easily passed by some of their most compelling student’s work if this was all I had seen. Luckily I did see Ceramics and Glass in situ at the RCA – read a full review of their show here.
From University of Westminster I was drawn to Emily Woodcock‘s ceramic photo frames piled crazily on top of each other.
Next to her Sally Szczech had interspersed ceramic bobbins embedded with old photos amongst sewing threads.
At Bucks New University I liked Tim Rawlinson‘s curvaceous coloured glassware.
Nan Kong from the University of Sunderland MA course showed a beautiful glass decomposing pear. Nom nom.
At the University of Wolverhampton Michelle Taylor had deconstructed baroque with knitted teacups and half gilded ceramics.
At University of Wales Institute Cardiff Nicala Hellinger displayed a wall of red and green flocked ornamentation.
