I spent the last few days working on the studio and gallery rebuilds for the up coming degree shows and as well as providing some much needed money it has really helped me see how much work i have to do next year!!!
Working alongside staff, ex-students and students setting up to exhibit in the degree show has also been useful in trying to predict my future. I wasn’t particularly worried about the future anyway but i think the last few days has shown me that if i really want to i will be able to make a living within the art world.
Enforcing this I have been offered the poss. of running a workshop for students aged 4 to 11 over the summer in a small school in Warwickshire, and as I think I’ve mentioned on here before I start giving tutorials at Bournville Collage on Monday.
Through all this i haven’t had chance to actually make any work, however i have been developing performances i intend to make over the summer and will start work on these next week i hope (as long as i get my home studio workable by then!!!). I also have my portable object for moving over #1 being collected and put in to storage on Monday ready for instillation at Napton Skate park some point next month hopefully.
Lots of exciting things happening at the min but can’t help thinking next years going to have even more things going on!!!
