IN PROCESS RESIDENCY – Day 2

This morning I placed the House/Bunker/House on the concrete blocks for the first time (carefully on some grey felt) and tried the fluorescent acrylic rods. Whilst there are no where near enough of them yet and they could do with being rather thicker, the light gathering works in a rather magical way, placing illuminated yellow spots on the dark interior. That also means I will have to work out another way of fixing them in place as the inside is too good to miss.

Nicola Naismith from Satellite Artists came to the space this morning and we had a meaty discussion about the placing of the work. Under her direction I took a substantial amount of material out of the space, clearing the view and perhaps visually cleaning it. Tricky to make just one cohesive, pared-down ‘show’ in the one room as there were two or three shows hidden amongst the mass of stuff. There was a big chat about the ‘lace that has still not been turned into the work it was supposed to be,’ and the nature and qualities of working with lace.

I spent the afternoon consolidating the changes we had made and later talking to Stephanie about work she has made for Sinopticon. Day 2 ended with me enjoying taking pictures of the sunset reflected in the glass piece Bagh I Tut.
