The opening for the ‘It’s not just black and white’ exhibition went really well. I always feel as if I could have interacted more, but I just did not want to come across as if I was approaching people as if it was some aggressive sales pitch. The exhibition was situated in an old derelict building, with a charm of decay and neglection, it was a perfect space to show artwork that made a change from displaying art in white, minimal spaces.
It was a good turnout of people who were friendly and open minded for discussion and sharing ideas, in relation to the theme of the exhibition. The exhibition was a mixed media show that consisted of photography, video art, paintings and drawings. It was nice to meet a different set of people and be exhibited with various artists from different backgrounds.
The curator suggested a Q & A and so I gave a short speech about my artwork and interacted with people. I think doing Q & A’s from artists are good, as people can interact directly with the artist and can ask questions and discuss themes.
I just want want to thank Natasha Clarke one more time for curating a fine show and for allowing me to participate in the exhibition, and also to the people who came to see it.
