Another Opening, Another Show

Happy and sad feelings this morning.

Yesterday was very emotional as the culmination of our residency was marked with the opening of our museum.

Fireworks of course.

The Australasians

I did the display with Jan Nealie , also pictured is Mr Fu one of the big bosses. He was very pleased with what we did. Especially the AutoCAD plans we presented.

My installation.

I am most pleased with the last pieces I made, the Stacks of brick bowls. They were made from variations of the standard brick clay which has so many additives. They were then once fired in the brick tunnel kiln and bound togfether like the stacks of bricks are. Most exciting.

We leave here in about an hour for the Han tombs on the way to the Airport to Nanchang. Then a 3 hr bus ride to Jingdezhen. The landscape is through a lake district so it should be wonderfully picturesque.

Don't know what the internet situation will be until we get there. Will try to update, but this may be the last post until 6 June.
