Frida Kahlo: Making Her Self Up V&A Museum
In 1954, following her death, Frida Kahlo's possessions were locked away in her home, the Casa Azul (Blue House), in Mexico. Half a century later, her beautiful collection of clothes, jewellery, medicines, make-up and false leg were rediscovered in a cupboard in her bathroom. This is the first time they have been exhibited outside Mexico, so I went to the V&A museum in London to find out more.

Specimens from an Imaginary Voyage at Exeter RAMM.
I saw Specimens from an Imaginary Voyage at Exeter Royal Albert Memorial Museum which is art made from glass that looks like real creatures but are actually imaginary and were created by the artist. I wanted to see them because they looked so real in the photograph on the website and I wanted to see them close up.

Unit 2- Art Exhibition
For Unit 2, I organised an art exhibition designed to celebrate the friendship between my best friend and I and our progress in art since we were 12. Art brought us back together after we went to separate schools and therefore it is really important to us. I wanted to share it with everyone to demonstrate the power of art so I have created a mini online exhibition to show the development through the displays.
