RCA Show & V&A Museum


I went to London yesterday with some of the MA group, we had a tour of the Royal College of Art, guided by the lovely Rachael Colley (our current artist in residence & former RCA student)of the exhibition & heard what some of the graduates had to say about their work. The exhibition was huge, a range of different disciplines mixed in together so it was sometimes difficult to differentiate the courses. Some beautiful; presenting and some real conceptual and masterful work. Lots of inspiration.

Some of my favourites:

Two of us also visited the Victoria & Albert Museum, unfortunately the Jewellery section was closed due to strikes which was a huge shame and we ran out of time to see the current exhibition "The Cult of Beauty" so I will have to pay another trip down after my MA in a couple of months......what  a beautiful museum!
