Platform Art Photo Text March 2015 | Page 2

NEW BEGINNINGS Hello and welcome to this first edition of Platform (Art, Photo, Text) and thank you if you have bought either the hard-copy or downloaded it to print yourself. The concept behind Platform is to create a space for new art students and the lesser known artist to showcase their ideas and work and hopefully increase the audience for this work and in a wider context, contemporary art as a whole. Although this issue is the first one and is s proof of concept, we hope to produce a extended run. For this issue a selected group of artist were asked to create work in response to the brief, New beginnings. There where no other constraints to the artists concepts and final works and they could - and did create anything which they believed fitted the theme. Future issues will be create on an open call basis where anyone can submit work relating to the brief of that particular copy of Platform. Once again thank you for your interest in our zine and we look forward to your continued support. Jason Carden Steve Hithersay
