Today went so well! We arrived at St.Christopher's, nervous but excited about showing all the work we produced. 2 hours, some beautifully iced cup cakes, and a few metres of bunting later... we were good to go! The balloons may have burst, the markees may have been slightly on the short side, but everything fell in to place and displayed the work to its best potential!
The showing of the animations was even better than i expected, and the audience reactions felt amazing. It was lovely to see the amazement in the patients faces as they watched their life stories displayed in animation. For me, that was the perfect ending to our time at St Christopher's, and also summed up the reason for being there in the first place.
To be honest, i'm really sad that our work with the hospice has come to an end, however i don't think the celebration day could have gone better! Furthermore, it was emotional saying goodbye to the patients that we worked with, as we all built up bonds and friendships in such a short time. However, i know we have all benefitted from this project, and developed as artists, students and most importantly, as people!
Thankyou for an amazing time, Patients, Roberto, Zoe, Alice, and everyone involved!
