As promised, we’re bringing you a special seasonal update!

Creative Exchange held its inaugural Christmas shin dig, with members kicking off the night in style indulging in a beautiful buffet and mulled wine.

Jonathan Stevens of Starbit stated:  “As a recent addition to the community at Creative Exchange, this night proved not only that the Creative Exchange is exactly the right place for Starbit, but also that the space is brimming with talent and fresh ideas. I think we’re going to have a great time getting to know all the other extremely talented people using the space.”

Many thanks to our members for contributing to out festive pot-luck spread!

Friday 13th December was the opening night of our first official exhibition, ‘Head Studies’, by Edinburgh College artist in residence Albie Clarke.

Head Studies is a studio-based project focusing on still life and anti-figurative portraiture. Using Expired film, continuous lighting and shooting on large-and medium-format cameras, Head Studies is an exercise in using studio techniques – rather than digital processing – to create a particular aesthetic. Influenced by abstract expressionism, the images are a celebration of film: its idiosyncrasies and its continued relevance to modern photography practice

Head Studies will be on show until 17th January 2014.

With two successful events under our belts before Christmas, all we could ask from Santa is to continue with more in the New Year!

Wishing you all a Merry Christmas from Creative Exchange!!
