The Creating Balance exhibition opened today at Pitfield Pop-Up in Winchester.
The project has been over a year in the making and is the celebration of a collaboration between Anglepoise, The University of Portsmouth and Strong Island a community group from Portsmouth.
The strength and breadth of talent in Portsmouth has been showcased at the exhibition.
During the last year 10 artists and designers were twinned with 10 photographers and each given an Anglepoise lamp.
Final outcomes are on display along with 10 videos all made by students Massimo Mazullo and Jonas Jakunas on the BSc TV & Broadcasting course at The University of Portsmouth.
We launched the exhibition as part of The London Design Festival back in September and were also picked to be part of the Icon Design Trail and speak at the V&A gallery in London.
Everyone involved in the project has been overwhelmed by the support and reaction to the exhibition so far. Some lamps have been customised - artist My Dog Sighs used his lamp as a palette, design studio I Love Dust illustrated theirs, Paul Gonella and Tristan Savage submerged a lamp in the solent for 4 months and Russell Squires turned his lamp into an Anglebot.
Pitfield, Winchester is the perfect place to exhibit due to their incredible curation of the space. Pitfield Pop-Up by Pitfield of London (owned by Sean Clarkson an interior designer who appears on Channel 4;s Four Rooms) is a mixture of shop, cafe and gallery.
You can view the exhibition until 7th December, open Monday to Saturday 7.30am - 5.30pm and Sunday 10am - 4pm. Pitfield Pop-Up Winchester is located in the centre of the city right by the cathedral at The Brooks, Winchester. It will then open at aspex gallery, Portsmouth on 10th January 2014 until 16th February.
Feel free to grab a copy of the brochure and postcard pack when you visit.

Hello Design Cutters! It’s Simon here for tutorial number 2 of Design Cuts’ 2nd birthday multi-deal fest. This time, we’ll create a cute, watercolor-themed birthday card, dedicated to our favorite team of design geeks!
We’ll use techniques including texture layering, masking, layer styles, and more! Quick word of caution: we’ll be layering a lot of elements, so this tutorial may take a bit longer than usual. But it will be just as much fun!
Note that there's also an extensive companion freebie pack to download and follow along with.
Missing a few folks unfortunately, but with a design team like this, you can get a sense of what this conference was like.
I started to send this as a tag game, but decided to just post as a picture.
This is a hybrid, using the Made to Move Skateboarder head, a tan Curvy Fashionista body and a new Fashion.
"The Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania is a railroad museum in Strasburg, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.
The museum is located on the east side of Strasburg along Pennsylvania Route 741. It is administered by the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission with the active support of the Friends of the Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania (FRM).
The museum's collection has more than 100 historic locomotives and railroad cars that chronicle American railroad history. Visitors can climb aboard various locomotives and cars, inspect a 62-ton locomotive from underneath, view restoration activities via closed-circuit television, enjoy interactive educational programs, and more.
The Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania was created to provide a historical account of railroading in Pennsylvania by preserving rolling stock, artifacts, and archives of railroad companies of the Commonwealth. However, the museum has branched out over the years, acquiring some pieces that are not directly related to Pennsylvania, but are important to the history of railroading.
In addition to full-size rolling stock pieces, the museum offers a number of other commodities, which include several model railroad layouts, a hands-on educational center, a library and archives, and a smaller exhibit gallery on the second floor.
Strasburg is a borough in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, United States. It developed as a linear village, stretching about 2 miles (3 km) along the Great Conestoga Road, later known as the Strasburg Road. The population was 3,132 at the 2020 census.
The town was named after the French city of Strasbourg, the native home of an early settler. The town is often called "Train Town USA" because of the many railroad attractions in and around town, including the Strasburg Rail Road and the Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania. Much of the movie Witness was filmed on a farm nearby. Much of the borough was listed as a historic district by the National Register of Historic Places in 1983." - info from Wikipedia.
The fall of 2022 I did my 3rd major cycling tour. I began my adventure in Montreal, Canada and finished in Savannah, GA. This tour took me through the oldest parts of Quebec and the 13 original US states. During this adventure I cycled 7,126 km over the course of 2.5 months and took more than 68,000 photos. As with my previous tours, a major focus was to photograph historic architecture.
Now on Instagram.

What is your artwork about?
"The first ideas I had centered on the theme of 'peace, but as I explored the website and photos posted on the Flicker page, I saw that many others had the same idea! I considered other themes but the one that kept returning to my mind was that of 'community'.
After all, if we all felt a sense of community, there would surely be peace!
In deciding on my implementation techniques, I kept returning to my desire to include the young children I care for each day because classroom community is something I always work very hard on creating.
If we raise our children to value living and working in a close-knit community, maybe we can embrace hope for a more peaceful future."
Techniques & Materials Used:
All materials were things I had in my studio stash. I intentionally did not purchase anything new for this project.
Fabrics used: muslin & an assortment of cotton quilting fabrics, double-sided Pellon Wonder Under, thread, Warm & Natural batting, buttons and ribbon -preprinted with the words: inspire, hope, believe, create, imagine and dream.
How did you hear about us? Wow I no longer remember! I stumbled on to the Dream Rocket site online a long time ago!
Did you enjoy this project?
"Yes, I did! It took me a long while to settle on an idea. Once l had the seed of my idea going, although I still procrastinated some, I finally relaxed and let the creative juices flow. I especially liked finding a way to let the very young (under two years old) children in my classroom be a part of both the process and the main design element (their traced hands as the leaves on the tree)."

It is pertinent to mention here that the capital city of Lombok has a thriving weaving industry. You can find some bright, patterned songket cloths for which Lombok is famous. Each weaver family in Lombok has some generations of weaving expertise and today, everything is used by them, gold, silver, silks and cotton to create dazzling pieces of patterned poetry.
We are creating an Art Float for Social Change at Tam Makers, to inspire more people to participate in democracy.
Our parade float features Mother Earth and a circle of hands, pulled by the colorful dragon Quetzy. Young activists will sing and speak about social change -- and artists will share their ideas on our spinning carousel. They want you all to vote, speak up and create a better world!
This community art project was created by over a hundred volunteers at Tam Makers, led by Fabrice Florin and Geo Monley, with the generous support of Good Earth, Mill Valley Community Action Network and Tamalpais High School.
The Art Float for Social Change will reach out to youth and people of color through art, music and technology. We will present this art show on Earth Day, Memorial Day and Fourth of July parades in Marin -- and throughout California this fall, to encourage people to vote in the next elections.

Created for the Trashion Team's Monster Mash Plush challenge, Tillie is wearing her best recycled tie-dye shirt decorated with a "mod" hot pink applique flower. Her blue feathers are made from a recycled child's fleece vest. Her tail, wings, beak and feet are made from a scrap of tie-dyed T-shirt. Her eyes are from a pair of recycled child's gloves. Always the activist, Tillie carries an olive branch and wears a peace pendant made from recycled plastic and vintage silver chain. This groovy bird wears an orange fleece flower with an old button to hold on her necklace.
We are creating a Time Machine at ‘Pataphysical Studios, our art collective in Mill Valley, where surrealism meets the maker culture. Our Time Machine will take you on wild rides through time, to meet characters from the past, present and future.
On a balmy summer afternoon, we gathered in the art garden to create some of its parts: dragons of change to guide you on your journey; an art priestess in her prehistorical cave; a pataphysical flag on a magic pole; a painted gear holding the secret of life; a cactus of the future strolling by in stop-motion.
We then showed our Time Machine to young Dr. Delia, who gave it the two-year old test, pushing all of its buttons to jump back in time to the age of dinosaurs, her favorite scene. I’m pleased to report that we passed the audition. :)
This was also a great opportunity to celebrate our good friend Dr. Rindbrain’s un-birthday, which we kept low-key at his request. Long live the young at heart!
We are recruiting experienced artists and makers to help create the Time Machine through art, multimedia, theater and technology. Please contact us if you are interested and live in the Bay Area. We will give a few private demos in the fall for folks who are ready to get their hands dirty with us.
