RCA Society Excessive Optimism Show
As part of the continuing dialogue around art and design practice the RCA Society organised an event which brought together twenty different 'works of art' for presentation and discussion. The invitation stated that the works should be submitted with a "bullish" valuation and publicly presented by their "creator" or "representative". Through the individual presentations the work's true value would be revealed and subsequently accepted or rejected by the gathered audience of 'experts'.

RCA Fashion Show 2011
RCA Fashion 12 June 2011
The RCA graduates fashion show is one of the key markers of where 'fashion' is - or will be. Hanging on to the traditional accolade of being the best show on the block is a tough call but the RCA graduating students' fashion show always manages to be visually stunning, technically challenging, and provides plenty of memorable 'fashion statements'. A mix of men's and women's wear across various genres - sprinklings of knitwear, practical wear, fantasy wear, head wear, footwear, extrawear, - all marking out a range of life styles. From crazy hip hop juveniles to elegant "mega buck" grand dames, from boyish cartoons to androgynous creatures.
RCA Design Show 2011
The Fashion School ushered in the design shows at the Jay Mews and Stephens buildings. Whilst the music faded the schools of fine art were showing 'down in Battersea' at the same time as the Design faculties filled the Galleries in Kensington to bursting point. The grandeur of ''Automative design' and 'Architecture' jostled with the intimacy of textiles, ceramics, precious metalworks and jewelry as a video of the Fashion Show ran alongside a foot relieving hour and half programme of animations.
