Hi!
Easter came and went and now it's back to work! Feel nicely refreshed after a couple of days off and starting to feel quite excited and nervous about the upcoming Private View on Friday. My personal expectations are high and I wont allow myself to let myself or anyone else down which basically means I'm willing to give my heart and soul and not leave the gallery on thursday until everything is set up properly. And then on Friday we'll lay all the final finishing touches and when the private view starts I just want everyone to be able to have a good time. Ultimately I think that's what it is all about, having fun!
Today I have been making books for my studio assessment, I have 12 original handmade books altogether now which I will present at uni. But I have also made a small booklet to go with my boxes in the gallery, four spreads-one for each painting, with a documentation of the painting on one side and the question on the other. All tied up as a book with a string of red yarn.
So, all is well for now, the weather is nice and I just talked to my parents on the phone and told them about all my preparations. Wish they could come on Friday but unfortunately it would be a bit too complicated to travel from Helsinki and back for just one evening. They'll get to see the photos of the happening afterwards instead.
Oh and I'm going to bake some norwegian crispbread as PV-snacks! It is something I am personally completely obsessed about, it is so good! Would be worth going to a PV for getting a taste of that bread alone. And it's gluten-free. I know both Rachael and Jennie will bake nice stuff too, it will be a feast!
See you there!
Nadja
