Unique Presence – Thanks for coming along!

Big thanks to everyone who came along to Unique Presence to witness the Co:Lab live debut on Saturday 5th December. We were all extremely please with how it went and greatly appreciate the enthusiasm shown. It was a long day starting at 2pm in the Islesburgh Community Centre and the first half was especially busy. We're glad however to have been able to keep the show open until 9pm, welcome the folk keeping less regular hours and sell them prints! Hopefully all the prints sold will settle happily into their new homes and earn a quizzical look or a toothy smile from time to time.
The Co:Lab team
Thanks must also be extended to Karen Bruce of Vunk Photography and Mootie House Design for organising the event and inviting us to participate. The Drama Room at the community centre was a great space in which to exhibit and looked particularly vibrant when filled with the textiles, jewellery, photography (and prints) of independent local artists and designers (Vunk Photography, Mootie House Designs Ltd, K J Originals, Jane Naish Jewellery ...)

For anyone who couldn't make it along, never fear, we're hoping to give you another chance to pick up a print very soon. Watch this space for details!

Unique Presence


On the 5th December - Andrew Morrison of New Dead Language, Beto and Jono Sandilands will be launching a set of screenprints they have been busy producing over these cold dark months under the name of Co:Lab.

The idea is that for the first week they each created an A4 image which was passed to another member of the trio who would then for the second week create another A4 image to overprint this with. And then week 3, Print!

Have a look over at the Unique Presence event page on Facebook, for more info.
