One of my personal fascinations is why do we collect ? I have, I realise many sets of collections and cannot resist the new starting of a collection every time I walk on the beach.
I helped to curate and set up COLLE3T at the Eldon Building University of Portsmouth, it was a fascinating and rewarding experience trying to exhibit 15 different collections. I couldn't seem to get a perspective on it , thanks to my wonderful colleagues Denise Callender, Sarah Turner and input from George Hardie (the ruler collector) and Judy Harrison (rejected creamware collector ) it may never have looked as good as it does.
