Okay, Hattain, so we're here at the Warbampton Art Gallery, and this is your exhibition, Come As You Really Are.
00:07
I've got to say, it's a fantastic exhibition.
00:10
Just explain what it's all about for me.
00:13
It's an exhibition celebrating hobbies and hobbyists.
00:17
The exhibition's packed to the brim of hundreds of objects made, modified or collected by hobbyists.
00:24
It's about self-expression.
00:25
It's about just being brave and, you know, just going for it and expressing yourself.
00:28
Yes, yeah.
00:30
So kind of what do you expect people to take away from it, really?
00:33
I hope people take away joy from it.
00:36
Yes.
00:37
And giving yourself permission to express yourself.
00:39
Yeah.
00:40
To make, to craft, to collect, and things that you can be shy about.
00:43
Yeah.
00:43
Just to kind of go for it.
00:44
It's okay.
00:45
Yeah, that's it.
00:46
I mean, it's absolutely a ramful of items, isn't it?
00:49
You know, so much to look at.
00:51
It's incredible.
00:51
I love shows where there's just tons to look at.
00:54
Yeah.
00:54
It reminds me kind of of my grand home in a way.
00:57
Yes.
00:57
You know, you just, there's somewhere to look at everywhere.
00:59
And the show is about the power of people.
01:01
Yeah.
01:02
So it's about having so much stuff in here.
01:04
You just can't take it in.
01:05
No, no, absolutely.
01:07
And I've got to ask, have you got any hobbies yourself?
01:09
I've got loads of hobbies.
01:10
I collect comics.
01:11
I collect Transformer toys.
01:13
Yeah.
01:13
Some bleed into my artwork, like making my Spider-Man costumes.
01:17
Yeah.
01:17
Yeah, I love it.
01:19
Yeah, wonderful.
01:20
And how long is it here for?
01:23
It's here till early October.
01:24
Yeah.
01:25
So there's plenty of time over the summer.
01:27
Come down.
01:27
You probably need more than one visit.
01:29
Yeah, absolutely.
01:30
I would say so.
01:31
But it's just, yeah, it's amazing.
01:32
But all the best.
01:33
It's a fantastic exhibition.
