We packed our bags, ready for opening night.
It went from organised chaos on set up day, to a tenmoregirls spectacular!

Exhibition Artist Statement:
In desperate need of a holiday, we packed our bags and escaped to the sunny shores of Hawai’i.
On the big island of Hawai’i, I loved the landscapes. There are vast expanses of lava rock, barren but for the vibrant, tenacious Bougainvillea and an ever-smoking volcanic crater surrounded by lush forests. In stark contrast, but no less breathtaking, was Waikiki, on the island of Oahu. The streets are lined with the retro architecture from the tourism boom of the sixties and seventies, and constantly crawling with sightseers.
The holiday ended far too quickly, but then, holidays usually do.
Missed the opening? Don't miss our Artist Talks, Saturday 18th September, starting at 2pm. Bring your friends, ask questions, meet the makers! (no heckling, please...)
Thanks to A mi, for the opening night photos.
