Update: First Impressions on Artist

When we went to visit the art exhibition called Untamed Bloom.We we're actually lost before we arrived at the venue,it seemed quiet strange for an exhibition to be held at some news broad cast place.Eventually after wondering around the building square we manage to find the gallery,tucked away towards a corner.As we entered, it seemed rather vast and empty ,nothing but paintings stood right there before us.I was getting very excited.We asked the guards if it was open for view and so they let us in. Immediately all us broke off,each running towards a painting that captured our attention.I think we were all pretty excited to actually be the only ones at the gallery,probably a sense of relief.

Considering the venue I did like how everything seemed airy,the way the huge windowed walls shone light inside the vast room,it was rather peaceful.On the side note,it was funny how everyone we went all "ooo's " and "ahhh' ",asking one another to "come over here check this painting out" or " I wonder why they didn't made it in this particular way".In that moment we became critics,maybe not professionally but at that moment we used our critical thinking skills.Wondering why certain things were as they were.

Personal favourite 


 An art gallery at Publica

Upon stumbling into this gallery,it had a zen vibe to it.
I noticed after the first trip to the previous Untamed Bloom exhibition that most artworks tend to correlate.This made perfect sense since even during our final photography project we were also asked to take pictures that would later on  correlate together to from nice and balanced images that will transition smoothly to one another.For instance, the art that seems to have old towered buildings  and china inspired houses are all tangled within a red rope.Upon my understandings,the red rope is the one that correlates to each of the painters other artworks.

Self reflection:
I would say that it was a tremendous experience to be able to visit an actual gallery for once,We even got lucky enough to have met most of the artist.But of course I've realised some rude comments, or at least I would think is personally rude.Twice we went to two different galleries and had again been asked whether we were going to buy a painting or not.I supposed it was rare for youngsters like us to have ever resort to a plain gallery. However,I don't take it personally perhaps they didn't meant it in that sense.

Other then that I realised that we really did come together and actually took the time to appreciate the artworks. We went in detailed,how they drew it and what materials they used,the brush strokes and so on.
