"I HATE MY COLLECTION": Saint Martins unveiled

Summer 2011. The new chapter of Central Saint Martins history starts. The historic and important college will move from its Soho site and join other branches of Central Saint Martins in a new purpose-built development in King’s Cross. As it is the end of an era for this legendary institution, I have found it meaningful to make a documentary film about the art college and the old St Martins school building on Charing Cross Road.

Updates from Saint Martins male toilet

The name of this blog and possibly the film is inspired by a graffiti in one of Saint Martins toilets from about ten years ago.

Today I went to the college to do some research on Stephen Jones, who we are interviewing tomorrow, and also have a look at male toilet on the ground floor, and I thought I would take some pictures of the graffitis that are currently there and will shortly be removed…

Sara Arnold - Saint Martins dinosaur

Sara is one of those rare fashion design Saint Martins students who still in the year 2010 make their own clothes. And she looks absolutely fantastic , that’s why you can always see her photos in coolest fashion magazines, she was in the first issue of LOVE, Another Magazine etc , and now doing a photoshoot with Tim Walker. 

The generation of Galliano and Stephen Jones and all those new romantics, they were spending their Fridays afternoon to make clothes to go out.  Now it’s all very different, not for Sara though :) She is not only making her own clothes but also along with her bf  organizes a club night, check it out  WWW.PEARLFLASH.COM

I met Sara  for a cup of coffee in Soho to talk to her about Saint Martins and her clothes. Unfortunately I forgot my Dictaphone so I had to do it in the old fashioned way. It’s just my hand writing is so dreadful I cant understand anything I wrote, so I guess I will have to email her the questions…

I do have some visuals though. Me and Raphy ( photographer) we went to Sarah’s fabulous house in Old street to take some pictures.

I went to Saint Martins in 1976, the year of punk, and left in ‘79. When I was there it wasn’t particularly well known for fashion, it was primarily for sculpture because of Anthony Caro and the big metal sculptors had all been there in the 60s. It was an extraordinary period and anybody who one could be interested in was a punk at that time.
