Something old, something new

A little late, but here is some information about student achievements at Kensington and Chelsea College. I'm in there too if you can spot me following the link below!  Blush

Kensington and Chelsea Facebook Learner Awards

This is where I am currently studying Professional Development for Designer Makers.  The atomosphere is fantastic with successful and experienced artists such as Akiko Hirai, Lisa Marklew, Kelvin Birk and Mizuho Koizumi providing excellent tuition and guidance. 

Some of my very talented colleagues on the above course won prizes and were selected to exhibit for the V&A Inspired by... competition 2012.  These include jeweller Zara Ahmed, glass artist Arturo Serrano, ceramicist Dennis Groenhuysen, whose totem piece 'Home' won him the Access Prize and contemporary jeweller Neelakshi Vidyalankara won the Benefit of Learning Prize for her ring entitled 'Parallel Tension.'

V&A Inspired by... winners 2012

You will be seeing and hearing more from us over the coming months as we prepare to exhibit at the UK's largest graduate show, New Designers 26th-29th June this year.  More information and tickets are available from the link below:
