Hi both
Elena – ‘bodies?!’ ……of course – whatever you do with it will be lovely. I look forward to seeing what you do with the embroidery.
I have promised myself an early bed tonight. None of my 2pm emails – I have to be up at 6.00 am to present my car load of hobby horses at the back door of Bluewater; the biggest shopping mall on the planet.
We have been told that people start arriving at 6pm to have breakfast. The shops don’t open until 10am but the food venues open early. How strange is all that?
An art student made us an amazing ‘porno’ hobby horse’ – she was working with gay men at the time. We have been totally unable to get it out – so to speak – so far. Brainwave. We will take it to Anne Summers and see if they are allowed to show it in store…
I visited Bluewater before it opened to the public. It was all finished bar the shop fronts but we were still made to wear hard hats. Quite extrodinary. I can only liken it to visiting Egyptian temples……….huge, silent, awe inspiring, beautifully crafted, monochromatic [ at that point]; a temple to Mamon.
The FHHP has one more venue booked and then the horses go back to their owners – in the field in which this all started a year ago. Not sure how I will feel. Lighter I think. A year long project has become quite heavy, time wise, financially and at times has put a strain on my relationship with my project collaborator Ros. Bit like suddenly finding yourself married really!
I keep thinking about painting again…….My work moves back and forth between 3D and 2D which confuses me still, but I can feel a painting phase coming on. Huge paintings seem to be waiting to be done. Not sure where that would leave my PTB ideas which have all been object driven…. it feels exciting though.
