AN exhibition of students' art that was inspired by the culture of the East has gone on display at Durham University's Oriental Museum.
The work, by Year 10 and 11 pupils taking GCSE Art and Design at Spennymoor School, and students on the BA (Hons) International Textiles and Surface Pattern course at Cleveland College, Middlesbrough, form a temporary exhibition that runs until Tuesday, October 31.
A museum spokesman said: "The works on show from Spennymoor School are the result of a long-standing collaboration between the school and the museum. This is the third exhibition of the school's work to be held at the museum.
"The works are directly insp-ired by pieces in the collection and include a free-standing 3D piece by Kate Smalley, winner of an individual award at the National Children's Art Awards sponsored by the Vivien Duffield Foundation.
The exhibition is open from 2-4.30pm on weekdays.
