So here's the photos from the final show which was a brilliant experience and a great success, and builds on our previous site-specific work at Dulwich Picture Gallery and in Shop. Some things students working on the project said;
"A really good site-specific experience, bringing the community together"
"The venue was amazing"
"Good for our parents to see our work in a professional context"
"Organisation- we got a chance to take control"
"A real confidence booster"
"Now I understand site-specific work better"
"Great experience: first real Year 12 show"
"Good to interact with members of the public"
Stuart Worden, Assistant Principal said, " Thank-you for the Horniman last night. Once again I see the VAD team pushing boundaries, working in exciting places and producing high quality work. I felt that the work benefited from clear subject matter and was impressed by the level of creative and intellectual engagement. I particularly loved the use of film and the piece with the children's clothing will stay with me for some time.
Brilliant commitment and thank-you for the vision and the energy."

Thanks very much to The Horniman museum for letting us loose in their fabulous museum- we hope to be back :)
