'Musical Progressions'By Kristin Lyseggen
Musical Progressions is the first exhibition produced by the Windows of Opportunity Project.
Portraits of 14 graduates from the Birmingham Conservatoire will be displayed in Paradise Forum from 6th June to November 2006.
For this first project, Windows of Opportunity collaborated closely with UCE’s Birmingham Conservatoire, Argent and Birmingham Central Library and invited Kristin Lyseggen to make portraits of some of this year’s new graduates.
Kristin was intrigued by the subject matter and sought to capture them in environments of their choice so as to reflect their personality and musical genre. The New Generation Arts (NGA) Festival is a four-week programme of innovative graduate art shows to be held in June in Birmingham.
Kristin Lyseggen studied BA Photography at UCE, graduating in 2004 with a First Class Honours Degree. Kristin is a Norwegian photojournalist who has lived in Birmingham for five years. She has done several exhibitions and continues to document life in her own individual style. She now works freelance and has a studio in the Jewellery Quarter. She has two further exhibitions in the NGA Festival.
The portraits of the Conservatoire's graduates will be displayed in the large windows outside Paradise Forum between Birmingham Central Library and the Birmingham Conservatoire.
