Hannah B Mitchell

 

Subtle pastels and translucence are the main theme of Hannah Mitchell's graduate collection at GSA. Hannah's work has a quiet intensity that grows, a silent beauty. It is a body of work that is beguiling, feminine, intricate and perfect.

Liu Chao

Liu Chao's graduation show at GSA was based on play, specifically construction toys like magnetics, lego and mecano. Liu Chao's interpretation of textiles is structural and hard, an architecture of cloth.

Rachel McIndoe

 

Sparkle and glitter, Rachel McIndoes graduate collection was a riot of sequins and layers of sheen and texture.

It is difficult to present a degree show or even the work of one department, as what I like and focus on would be different to anyone else seeing it, so I am going to share what I liked.

The work of Dawn McColgan was fantastic today, handling it, it moved like a slinky. It was delicate and yet full of amazing detail and experimentation.
