Optimism

Went to the Ikon Gallery-
- Liked the use of a pitch black exhibition space for projection work very atmospheric,
- Liked the church like space and the banjos in the tower,
- Best bit has got to be the singing lift. (give it ago!!)

Went to see Bridget Riley-
- Was impressed with how sick her work made me feel.
- Was impressed with her smooth painting skills.
- Was also impressed by the amount of work that goes into them before the final piece.

Went for a walk by the canals-
- Liked the amount of textures and earthy colours.
- Liked the foreigner shouting at the geese.
- Liked the bridges and the warmth of the sun.

See im being optimistic
(ignoring the rubbish in the canal, the fact Riley's work is actually pretty small and that the ikon was so small too, big clearly does mean better)
