After the mamooth program of the past 6 weeks with the unfortunate cancellation of "The Watchers / 7 Giants"
(due to the exhibition space falling into dormancy exactly at the time when we should have opened the show… I learnt big lessons from this: make very concrete arrangements and make them in writing… or lose a lot of time and money…)
… well after all that I am something like 98% wiped out and exhausted.
However the enforced resting period on my sofa next to the garden window, listening to the birds and reading about the Folkstone Triennial and Tracy Emin's contribution (which I like very much),.. well doing all that resting and strangely static existing I suddenly have been taken over by a whole avalanche of new ideas.
Given just how extremely exhausted I am I can but wonder what makes the Muse deliver more large scale and labour intensive ideas.. One thing is certain: I need a production team. And the other thing that is certain: I can at this stage in my career not afford one.
So… But here comes a solution in form of a new project idea that I have just fallen in love with head over heels:
hmmmm..
actually I may just have to keep you in suspense there. because I am so incredibly happy with this idea that I might have to hide it in a box for a few more days. It's just too good.
You know the feeling… it's kind of the same as everyone's baby is the best baby, everyone's cat the nicest cat.. etc… and so it is with this new project. If I had the energy I would be leaping off the sofa and jump with joy and excitement.. as it is I will immediately drag my tired body to clear the room for my new flatmate, who is due to arrive in 2 weeks time. So that once that job is out of the way I will be able to launch head first into the deep end of my new project.
