GCSE and A Level students enjoy an exhibition workshop at the RCA


 The workshop was all about texture- drawing, talking, thinking and seeing textures. We started out the day in the Sculpture building at Battersea which had some fantastic work and textures to offer! The group started out with a texture hunt. Each student was given a texture related word to try and hunt down within the show. All the students came up with some brilliant responses to the words that they were given.

Check out more of their work on the Showzine blog.
