EVERYTHING STARTS WITH SOMETHING - Manchester School of Art (2019)
Final year of University this was our degree show we had to make and install our work as it would be on show for the public to see. All the details had to be considered about hanging our work, many adjustments and curatorial aspects had to be considered. This really challenged me to think about my work and how it fits into a space.
