Great Northern Contemporary Craft Fair

We really enjoyed our visit to the GNCCF on Friday - lots of lovely things to admire! Particularly liked Sarah Morpeth's cut paper books, Moira Walton's 'Artefacts', Michelle Keeling's glass and were intrigued by Judith Davies and Elspeth Edmonson joint display of porcelain ceramics and typography/print which had more of the feel of an art exhibition.

Tate Modern: Ai WeiWei

Over a billion hand made and painted porcelain sunflower seeds fill the Tate Modern Turbine Hall. This stunning installation by Chinese artist Ai WeiWei is surely one of the best there has been at Tate Modern?
