Art Head

Today we put our art heads on (me, Craig & Keeley) and went to a local exhibition of art, for some ideas to develop ourt mural at club into something which is a bit more 3D.

Saw some great pieces which weren't at all conventional in their content or presentation - they weren't all just slapped onto a wall to display them, some hung free (like the one to the left), some stood in the middle of the room, round a column, in a cupboard or in a book.

A piece we particularly liked was the one to the right which at first glance appears to be a being with wings then on closer inspection, as Keeley pointed out, you can see that the wings are made up of shredded cigarette boxes. Craig then concluded that perhaps the wings were lungs. Aren't these two clever...nearly as clever as the artist.

We also liked some of the following work in particular either because of its simplicity, inventiveness (not really a word is it?) or just because it was big (like the one K & C are pointing out below.
