3D off the page

BPW exhibition opened and although I do have some work in it so you would think I was biased I think it's a good exhibition. Members were asked to think off the page and inappropriate print in some way in their 3D piece. The result is robots, fairy cake jigsaws, flying birds ,butterfly's and much more.

The exhibition continues for a while yet www.belfastprintworkshop.org.uk and is worth having a look as is the exhibition in the Golden thread gallery and the Engine room. Although I've not caught up with them yet it's just through the grapevine. Details on www.belfastgalleries.com Last Thursday there was a bus load of press going around the different galleries for First Thursday, one of they asked me with so many galleries is their really enough local artists to show in them? Well it's a good question and the answer is, their are loads of artists out there looking and working on shows. Northern Ireland has boundless talent its just not marketed and handled with in the right way.
