I've started a placement at the West Yorkshire Print Workshop in Mirfield. This placement, like with my LCA workshop placement will continue long after I graduate, however so far I've been four times and I thoroughly enjoy helping out there. I have assisted on open days and have had a chance to meet all the technicians and various artists who rent studio space there.
Most of my jobs consist of technician roles and a variety of odd jobs, printing, organising, promotion etc. It's such a wonderful space to be in as everyone you talk to is creative and keen to talk about art and design and their practice so it's a wonderful place to get inspired. My hopes are to continue here and perhaps help push the struggling charity to new heights with meet ups and better advertised festivals. It certainly is in a lovely location and in a gorgeous historical building so theres so much potential. Hopefully it will also act as my creative base where I can pay an annual fee to use their facilities.
