The Cob Gallery

My of my favourite designers has to be Kate Moross and finding out that she had her work exhibited in the Cob Gallery I immediately had to go. I absolutely loved this gallery and her style is something that I can't get enough of and I would love to recreate this.

The gallery not only exhibited her final pieces but the whole work process which was really interesting to see as someone who inspires me greatly. The tapped up pieces of hand drawn research and end results had a really unique feel which represented Kate Moross' personality and style of work. Her patterns are amazing and the style she uses is something that is something that I wish to recreate in my own work. I feel that the colours she uses as well as the hand drawn images put into computer software really mirrors my own style and I can learn a lot from this work. Some of the pieces were nice to see as a confirmation of stuff i've already seen though her work for products such as dairy milk and magazines that were published.

The way in which the work enhanced both my love and passion for this designer really made me want to go home and recreate some of her works in my own style. I feel that her work is something that I want to use as a main inspiration to my project and use a patterned theme throughout my work.

Although all of the works are amazing, my favourite piece has to be this one because of the bold colours against the black background. I also like how it has been presented alongside other works which make it stand out a lot more than just on a white background. The bubbles really enhance the text making it not only a poster of information but a work of art.

Having triangles all around the walls also promotes herself and adds a playful feel to the room. Overall, I absolutely loved the gallery and her work and it was a real shame that I missed her talk.
