Wonderful weekend

I had a wonderful weekend at our open studio as part of Sherwood Arts Week. We had 200 people through our gates and we met such lovely people. I’d like to thank everyone who came and showed their support. I am looking forward to us hopefully having more events in the future.

As part of the exhibition I had a computer set up with excel open so people could make their own spreadsheet art.

Boy on excel

It was  a very straight forward idea. I just wanted to give people the opportunity to use a piece of office software for a different function than it would usually be associated with. Here is what was created:

Collaborative Spreadsheet Art

When looking up spreadsheet art I found that the Google docs team had made a collaborative spreadsheet to demonstrate  how you can use Google docs. Brilliant idea!

One article from a site called  suite 101 said ‘Watching the art emerge from a source usually associated with business is entertaining and inspiring.’

Finding time – 1 week to go

There is 1 week to go until ‘Finding Time’  located at White Rabbit studios. There is lots to be getting on with and I am feeling a nervous excitement. We were at the studio till late last night and I realised two things 1) I have never looked in our shed before and 2) The space has lots of potential for future projects. I think I finally feel at home in a studio.
