I'm well and truly back in the UK, and getting used to the cold and damp weather as well as busily writing up my report for the module assessment of which my trip to Hong Kong has been the main part.
I would like to take this opportunity to profusely thank Mian Ng and the University of the West of England; Mian for deciding to choose me as the candidate for the Hong Kong residency, and also UWE for generously putting up the funding for my flights and accomodation in HK. Their generosity has given me the once-in-a-lifetime chance to immerse myself in my print-making and engage with the city, its people and culture in a way that would not have otherwise have been possible - it's not a trip I could easily have funded myself, if at all; and without UWE I would not have had the connections to printmaking that have been so valuable to me during my stay.
I hope that I have used my time well (I feel sure I have) and laid down the foundations of a relationship with Hong Kong Open Printshop and also the Island School that will benefit students that may visit in the future, and that UWE's faith in me as a student and ambassador for the University will prove to be a well founded investment...
Thankyou so much UWE!
