The return of Robert

TLC tutor and artist-in-residence, Robert Franken returned from his artist residency in China on Monday. HE’s been staying in Xiamen with another New Zealand artist, John Walsh. He says “Back in Wellington and reflecting on a journey to the Middle Kingdom. It all went pretty smoothly and the preconceived ideas one has about places were pleasantly altered . China is not a country , but a concept.”

Robert tried to keep a blog of his journey, which was hindered a bit by access to blogs and facebook being restricted. He managed to send text out by email and we’ve been posting it to his blog during his stay. Now that he’s back he’s adding in photos of the experience. It’s probably best to go and read about his journey in his own words and look at the images he’s returned with – you can view it here at www.robertsjourneys.blogspot.com

Robert plans to continue blogging about his artistic process and fabulous travels. Keep in touch with him!!!
