Photographer – This will be a UEL photographer for the private view exhibition.
Models - need to confirm the 3rd model.
Empress Dress - is completed but the hem.
Blog – needs to be finalised
Sketch Book - Adding final touches.
Invites – Sending them via email.
Theoretical body of work – I am struggling to complete this. I am finding it very difficult, as I know what I want to say, however I cannot seem to format the words in my head so they make grammatical sense when I write them down.
Empathy Dress – I need a machinist that can complete it, in order for me to have a fitting ASAP.
Sound Scape - this was given to dominic to create a piece that will encompass all of our work.
Exhibition Space - We all spent 2 hours in the space trying to allocate the best possible space for each of those exhibiting. One tends to take it for granted, an interesting exhibition would have had a lot of thought and time invested in the planning.
The Structures - The dresses have proven to be successful in the fabric, I thought it may be too heavy but it has worked really well.
The Plinths - are amazing, I think I will end up painting them grey, as white might look a little harsh against the grey flooring.
Accessories - All the accessories have been ordered
Business cards and Post cards have arrived
The Box for my 3D print is looking really nice. It really makes a difference if you have nice packaging.

Conclusion
I have had a really amazing journey with loads of highs and lows. Days when I questioned what I was doing here, did I deserve to be here, as I was struggling with the areas that encompassed IT. Then the rest of the time, taking a step back looking at where I was (in my life) and thinking yes, I am so happy to be here, in this place, space at this time. I should have done this a long time ago. The spinning wheels of life will continue whether you're on or off the wheel. I feel brave and proud of myself, to have braved going back to being a student, and in my place of work.
The pressure to do well is so high. I feel like every step of my journey has been in a fish bowl. Everyone has been so nice and so supportive throughout. I feel at times, I have been really hard on myself.
Overall it has been an incredible journey. I would most definitely recommend doing an MA to anyone. I feel I have grown as an individual and as an artist and a designer. The mission has been forfeited. I graduated as a designer 25 years ago, and I am now graduating as an artist, utilising my design/pattern cutting skills to create fashion - cross over to sculpture/Art.
