Heya!
I am back, today's post is slightly different but I wanted to let you guys know about what I have been up to recently so I thought I would share with you one of the things I did this weekend.
There have actually been a lot of things which I have done recently which is why I have only been able to blog once a week. But hopefully I will get to catch up with you all soon about everything. So let's get started!
Now last Saturday I went to a women's rights protest in London. I actually went because I wanted to get some primary research pictures for my textiles. I am doing my work in textiles around the theme politics so I really wanted to get some first hand inspiration.
Now I had never actually been to a protest before so this was my first experience! The protest started on Oxford Street just outside of Selfridges. The march was formed of lots of different groups which had come together to stand up for women's rights.
Seeing everyone marching together and chanting for women was very empowering and I am really glad I got to experience it. The march is held annually every year. I thought it was a very appropriate post for today as international women's day is tomorrow.
The protest was actually very big many people joined in and the march lead all the way up to Trafalgar square where a rally was then held.
My trip was really successful as I was able to capture some create photos which I will definitely be able to use for my textiles.
Today's post has been very short but I wanted to make sure I didn't miss out on a post and I wanted to let you all know what I have been up to. In the next few weeks I may also have slightly shorter posts as deadlines are approaching and exams are just around the corner so I have a lot of work to do. Anyway I hope you are all well and enjoyed this slightly different read today. I will be back soon. Thanks for reading!
