EXHIBITIONS – PHOTOGRAPHY COURSES – EDUCATION – CCP SHOP – AWARDS

Went to the Final years exhibition last night along with Michelle, and Nicole S.
I would guess there were close to 200 hundred people there last night.. A great turn out and some amazing work.
Special mention goes to:
Andrew Hope,Bridget Meldrum, and Oliver Parzer who all had great things said about their work.
I think the stand out series of the show last night was Bruce Lindsay’s ‘Bent out of shape’. Original, emotive, and a perfect simplicity. Well done.
Get along and support your fellow students.
