Sian's photography work has also been held in many institutions such as: the Victoria and Albert Museum, the Museum of Fine Art and many, many more...
After listening to Sian speak I have gained a greater understanding into a practice and areas that I have never really considered before. It has helped me to understand how all art subject and areas can help one another along with the idea that you can be much more than just a Fine artist, photographer, graphic designer you can have multiple roles at once within the art industry.
Beyond this I don't really connect with the work she creates it is fun to observe and often quirky and unusual but my aesthetics and the way I approach my creative practice is extremely different.
