Theme

The following notions/ideas were set as a starting point and what our exhibitions should be based on we have to pick one in doing will help form our groups. This allows for us to be part of a group that will have similar ideas instead of just picking the people we talk to in the studio on a day to day bases. I am excited about having fresh inspiration and ideas to work from and other peoples involvment in my work even though I can see it being challenging as well.
