My venue for last year's Art Trail, an empty shop in The Royals Southend, has since become a longer term project space for alt art education innovators TOMA. Over the summer, among many exhibitions, workshops and activities they're running a series of public crits. I've been interested in participating for a while, so followed the Art Trail line and took this years work to last year's venue for some shared development! It was a really interesting afternoon. Got some very useful feedback  - and even more enjoyed seeing and hearing about other artists new work and processes. I look forward to more of this in future. Thank you to artists Emma Edmondson, Marie Walbey, Laurence Harding & Amanda Lwin! And thank you Marie & Emma for the invite. For more about TOMA, visit here.
