After an incredibly busy and tiring two weeks my vision has finally been realised! When I stand in the space and take it all in I am hugely proud of what I have been able to achieve within this degree […]
My blog seems to have taken a bit of a back seat this week as I have been working relentlessly to complete my installation. After wallpapering the walls and painting them last week, the first thing on my agenda this […]
