Velocity. framed at last!


I had a few points where viewers could take part, create and add to the show. I thought it would be a nice way to document the exhibtion rather than just through photos. Here is what happened on the opening night...

































These have been really cool to watch evolving and growing but the postcards have really blown me away. The wall is now pretty much covered with pictures and notes and little secrets.
