Speaking of being en-route to somewhere … in the three week’s time I will be en-route to Aarhus, Denmark, where Glitter Ball is taking part in Juxtapose. Mireia and I are driving from Uppsala via Malmö where will pick up work by Pavel who will join us later in the week. Lydia is flying(?) to Aarhus from the UK on Tuesday, and Roberto arrives in Aarhus on Thursday from Copenhagen. It’s very unfortunate that Elena is having knee surgery and is unable to join us.
I am still in (at least) two minds about what to present as to my second work. I think that I am going with an assemblage of material arranged to suit the particular dimensions of the display panel. When I return to the studio later this week I will continue working in the panel size areas that I have marked out on the studio wall.
It is very exciting to think about being one of the participants/exhibitors rather than being one of the organisers. That said there is crossover … perhaps not exactly crossover … perhaps seepage … perhaps something nicer sounding that I cant quite put my finger on at the moment. Because of my work with Supermarket I know not only Pam and Cecilie who are the directors of Juxtapose, but also several of the other participants/exhibitors. I know that this will be good for me. I am perhaps too keen to keep the different aspects of my life separate and distinct. This is not an option at Juxtapose! I will very much be in the intersection of (my) life’s Venn diagram.
That intersectionality might furnish me with a sense of wholeness; and that is probably … definitely … no bad thing.
Definitely time to start heading for those doors that are on the latch or perhaps already a little ajar …
