Unlike other exhibiting space at the degree show, BA Ceramic Design divided its display into several intimate rooms. The lighting effect plus the proximity to the ceramics puts a very affectionate taste in the air, making me somehow serene but timid, although, the work by Will Krause made a slightly different case. His upper body portraits sat in certain politeness, rugged but unrushed, addressing the many faces of anonymity. With bold shaping and remaining traces of artistic process, down to each clothing detail, Krause is not sparing in the slightest at his audacious mark making. It might take a second look to make a note of the poise from the sombre tint, but once you did, you may begin to catch sight of that poignant presence under the painted everyman skin.
