soooo, degree show down in the morning. although my video is going out into the world, i don’t see a time when it is going to look so well presented in the near future. it works so beautifully in the space it is in, it is sad that it is over.
with support from our lovely head of course, we take our “best of” show to some empty shop spaces in southampton town centre on monday. no time to install the cinematic delights of the degree show space so flat screen tv, dvd player (for hd footage – shame!) and headphones for sound. welcome to the real world. it is still an exciting prospect – more of a shared space so some thinking to be done about how our disparate works integrate with each other. also, the question of merchandising is in the air. we have to fund the posters and preview bar somehow so how? a group show poster is one option, using a combination of images; individual prints; originals obviously an option – pricing? all new challenges and decisions and dilemmas. lovely. other opportunities have also arisen but more of that on another day.
