Hunger's pieces were brilliant!
I
remember having such a hard time trying to do my cloissone last year, being so
fiddly and taking up so much time and didn't quite turn out perfectly. But his
series of works were really amazing. They are precise, finish of the work is
beautiful and everything was just perfect. The lines are so fine and it must
have took him ages to finish them!! The artist even set the stones on same
piece of metal as he's done his cloisonne on. We weren't able to touch the
pieces but the backing of the brooches seemed well finished also.
Museum
visit
I quite
enjoyed the museum.
The
Japanese exhibition of woodblock printing was very interesting to see. I
personally felt as if I was looking at a westernized Japanese cartoon. The
history of Japanese art being introduced into the Western society was
fascinating.
The
woodblock printing also remained as a convenient technique to reproduce written
texts.
