"Neighbourhood Colour" Exhibition

From what I have seen looking at the work exposed in the exhibition, the students had to look at two areas of London , most of the time different in style and atmosphere, they had to look at their colours.

The work I really liked and found perspiration, in general I was attracted by knit and print work and I found that their final outcome was something I would like doing.
I like the knitted top, knitted in fine grayish yarn, the girl( I don't remember her name but she is so nice!)printed on top of her knit with puff binder and devore, both had a terrific effects on the outfit.
I really liked the combination of print and knit and it showed me that textile design stays open minded at Chelsea.
The second one that I loved is the printed fabric with many different cups and digital printed toasts and the "cat rug", I found it very entertaining and enjoyable to look at, it is very actual and funny!

Amongst other I like the knitted garments in many colourful yarns, it was cool to see some technique she used that I had just learned. it was really standing out.
I liked a lot of the stitch work but mainly I liked seeing a concrete example of what can be done in stitch.

In terms of personal research, I was amazed by the hair drawings a girl did, they looked so real! and I liked her material adaptation which was very explicit.

I was happily surprised by the variety of presentation and that motivated me.

Asking about sustainability to the girl whose print were amazing, I was disappointed to realise that it didn't seem to be a strong value in her work and that with all the chemicals used for screen print, it didn't matter.

Globally I enjoyed looking at every one's work, it helped me a lot toward my specialisation decision.
