Last week, aside from the disappointing events surrounding the Arts Council meeting, have been focussed on finding part time work to support my practice, hence I went for a job interview.
Upon the realisation that I need new reliable childcare, some of my time will now be distracted trying to find babysitters, so I can attend the shows that my colleagues put on in the evening, some of which deal with issues that are unsuitable for children. Besides, the boys hate attending these "dull grown up things", they get bored, as they did when I attended an exhibition by Alexe Dilworth over a week ago.
(I wondered why I'd been invited, but it became clear with the appearance of Alexe's prints of historical German dolls from the Usher Gallery)
Meanwhile, just to put the work into context:
"The simulacrum is never that which conceals the truth – it is the truth which conceals that there is none. The simulacrum is true.
