Louise Nason, artist in residence 2009

There was a brilliant turn-out to the private view of Fabricate. Loads of people made their way through the snow to Louise’s exhibition opening and joined us for mulled drinks. (In fact so many came along that we had to send someone out for more supplies!) There was a really magical atmosphere with pools of light illuminating Louise’s work and catching on the carved stone and reflecting on the candelabras in the old building. Everyone seemed to be in a good mood too, possibly that was something to do with walking through the snow in the dark and then coming in to a welcoming and warm building. We will do more of an update in the next few days with some images but for now I just want to thank everyone for coming along. For anyone who missed the PV but intended to come along, the exhibition is on until 30 January and Louise is there for much of the time as she is using the last few weeks to work on another piece on her loom at St George’s.
