The textiles show at the Norwich University College of the Arts was split in to two halves. On the ground floor there was work displayed for sale, they had created products such as lanterns, scarves, wooden letters, clothes etc. In a space above this shop there was more background work, large pieces of fabrics, experimental work, samples etc. This enabled students to show of their abilities for creative textiles as well as finished pieces. I was impressed with the variety of work produced, it shows that textiles is a very broad subject. For me it is all about creativity and the sense of touch, this is what drew me into textiles, textural sufaces (I have to touch everything I see). Bearing this in mind I may need to come up with some sort of product to produce within my textiles work, up until now I have just been experimenting with weaving and making samples.
