Online Shop and Upcoming Events

A visitor at Ambiente asked if I had a online shop, which I don't, so it got me thinking. I asked some of my art friends and they said go for it. As I can always try it out for a few months and keep or delete it. So coming soon in mid-March will be an online shop on my website. www.ruthharrisonceramics.co.uk

I am taking part in Rising Stars touring exhibition starting off at New Ashgate Gallery in Farnham. Opens to the public on 8th March - 19th April, then it goes to Milton Keynes Art Centre 26th April - 31st May, finishing up at Smiths Row at Bury St Edmunds 7th June - 12th July.

The Contemporary Craft Festival at Bovey Tracey in Devon is one of the UK's finest craft events in Devon and I have been chosen to have a stand in the One Year On marquee for graduates or people within 1 year of setting up their businesses. 6th - 8th June 2014 click the link for more information http://craftsatboveytracey.co.uk/

The Big Art Show in Shropshire is on the 19th and 20th July and I will be selling my ceramic pieces there. Come and see me if you are in the area. Click the link for more information http://www.thebigartshow.co.uk/

Success at Ambiente

Ambiente 2014 came to an end yesterday. It was very busy on the Sunday and I had quite a lot of interest from different people from different countries. It was very amusing to see the shock on some people's faces when they see the video of myself making a piece and realise each disk is put on one by one.





Next I will be exhibiting at New Ashgate Gallery in Farnham from 8th March. It is part of a touring exhibition running from March to July visiting Milton Keynes and Bury St Edmunds.

Getting Set Up For Ambiente

Setting up ready for the opening of Ambiente tomorrow 7th-11th February 2014 at Messe Frankfurt. Didn't realise how big the building was but with 11 halls it will need to be!





The protective flooring is getting removed tonight but I'll post some pictures during the event. Looking at it now I already know what I'll do differently next time (swap the shelf and images over) I knew how I wanted it in my head (my logo decal on the top left with web address, photos underneath it, on the right the shelf so it is in line with the bottom of the images and the plinths are where I wanted them as I didn't want the taller pieces on the corner through fear that they would get knocked over.)

Arrived in Frankfurt

So myself and my little helper Barbara have arrived in Frankfurt for the 2 weeks. We've already seen some interesting sculptures and other places of interest. Looking forward to some proper exploring! Tomorrow we are going to set up the exhibition stand ready for Ambiente which opens on Friday 7th for 5 days. We drove past it on the way from the airport to the accommodation and it is a very large place. But I am getting very excited and looking forward to meeting new artists, networking, listening to peoples feedback and comments. Lets hope for some orders and lots of interest!
