Polluted Minds

Wednesday, December 16th, 2009

            The polluted minds exhibition rolled into town last month featuring the work of four illustration students from UWIC. It was located over at the international Art space tactileBOSCH and was the brainchild of Bill Giles, Adam Travers, Dave Hazelgrove and Richie lee.

            Upon arrival, you’re first impressions of the building are of somewhat confusion- a cold building in a dark corner of a housing estate in Llandaff north. However, through the doors lay a vibrant, dynamic illustration exhibition boasting the unstoppable talent we have here at the Cardiff School of Art and Design.

            Towering cityscapes merged with sinister characters, elegant floral illustrations entwined with abstract shapes. It really was an attack on the senses. There were numerous pieces in the exhibition-broadly collaboration works based around the theme ‘pollution’.
