The Colonnade House staff are as lovely as we remember, they’ve given us some great tips on how to photograph our work, there is guidance from Richard at Colonnade House on YouTube on how to achieve high quality pictures and his top tips for using an iphone, we all going to watch it.  

It is clear that three textile hangings each for the installation is just not enough.  We are going to need at least 7 hangings each maybe more to make a sufficient impact.  The light is still great even on a damp and slightly dull day.   We like the idea of using a mix of solid and transparent textile hangings and will explore this idea further.  We don’t want to stifle the creativity of varied approaches to the textile hangings by defining too tightly how they should be – we want difference.  We may need some cohesive element later, but for now we want to continue without limits.  

The ceiling to floor measurement is 1.86M, so this has to be factored into our hanging length, so we will vary the length and type of hanging ‘string’.  

Next month we are looking at our publicity, we have got an article into CQ Magazine which is Part I, with Part II to follow in June.
