Banks Mill Studio Exhibition Derby

Whilst attending an open day at Derby University I had to chance to go and see the Banks Mill Open Studios exhibition, which was only a few minutes walk from the university.

The exhibition featured a lot of different artists, some having come from Derby University, it was really good to see a range of professional. working artists displaying and selling their work to the public, alot of them were very friendly to and it was nice to have a chance to talk about what they do, being a fairly small exhibition i think it gave artists a better chance to connect with the public.

A artist that I really liked was Mig Holder, a textile designer graduate from Derby University. Holder creates work using only recycled materials, her work could be described as being abstract, figurative and oftan wearable. Holder's way of working with recycled and found materials interests me, as it is a similar to what I like to do, therefore found her work quite inspiring and influential.
