Although we didn’t get much notice about this Exhibition, and were initially told we could only display our work from our ARD602 – Negotiated Studies 1 module, which for me was difficult as my work for this module was a Pre-Production folder for the Film Hacked which I have wrote and plan to produce as my ARD603 Negotiated Studies 2.
It wasn’t till the Wednesday that I got told I could exhibit my work from last year, with this limited notice and the onset of a bad cold/stomach bug, I was only able to submit two images which I still had on my Mac Laptop, these were from semester’s two module ARD507 Creative Media Directions. The photographs from Modern Master – My take on Dogs playing poker, and from Photo essay/editorial – Castell Coch Magazine article. It is thanks to friends, peers and staff that my work eventually got to be displayed in the Exhibition, although gratefully I can confirm not only did they get my photographs, printed, mounted and displayed, they also kept me up to date as things progressed, and even asked me to confirm what I wanted detailed on my name plaque under my work before producing it and displaying it. I decided to go with my official email address that I have set up for my future business and to have the details of my business Facebook page so interested parties had the ability to view some of my other works.
Although I am pleased that I was one of the few that managed to exhibit at this show, I am disappointed that we weren’t given more time to prepare, and that due to illness I wasn’t able to be hands on in the preparation. I would have liked to do a better display and really showcase my Photography, I would have also liked the opportunity to develop my exhibition skills especially as the Final Degree Art Show is fast approaching.
