Heya!

I hope you are all doing very well. Today I thought I would do a post about the exhibition which my college held. 

So every year the A2 students work is held in a small exhibition were people can come and see the students work being displayed. As I have just finished my A2 course my work was displayed at the exhibition so I thought I would share it with you all.  

My work was produced under two separate themes. One for coursework and one for exam. My coursework theme was one which I chose myself and I chose the theme 'personality' and in this project I particularity focused on extrovert personality's and used a lot of bold and bright colours and prints which I will talk about a bit more in a bit. My second theme for my exam was 'truth, fantasy or fiction' and within this I looked at politics and the truth behind it, particularity the fantasy of what peace would be like within politics. I will also explain that a bit more further on in the post.  

For my coursework theme of personality I produced a skirt. The skirt was super colorful and had numerous prints on which were created with different techniques. I was particularly focused on the idea of the extrovert personality. I used bold colours and prints to show the craziness and confidence of the personality, I was inspired by people such as Confetti Crowd and Paloma Faith.

My exam piece under the theme politics focusing on the truth and fantasy of the subject I looked at psychedelic prints for peace and rebelliousness through the punk style. For this I produced a waistcoat which I embellished. 

Along with my two garments I created I had sketchbooks which accompanied my work and these were also at my exhibition. 

On the wall of my section at the exhibition I had some of my portfolio pages which I had produced. These had been predominantly made for my coursework them of personality. They included collage'd fashion designs, photographs of my final outcome and samples of my weaving, trapping and felting.
