University Campus Ipswich

Have missed useing the blogg on this site, well l managed to get through my degree show and got a fantastic grade 2.1 over all and 2.2 for my dissertation not bad for an old timer.

Have tried to get a job so l can fund my practice with not much successes so have joind a art group that also has links with my uni called Atrium, it has a great buzz and some good people to make contatcs with,

am working of some new ideas with films l have done since leaving uni, keeping this fresh.

oh dear well that’s blown it my Android is broken, spent Saturday looking for someone to get it working and unless l can find someone kind enough to lend me one for Monday that’s part of my degree show gone.

I have documented this through out so at least l can show it was working.

will just have to show baby walker with bricks on there own with no image and sound which was really the point of it.

feeling deflated and very disillusioned about my degree show now, but l feel l gave it my best shot and as my mum always says “at least you gave it a go “.

the rest of my work is working ok well it was when l left on Friday so fingers cross it will all be on on the day.

I have also looked at Ryan Gander this piece he did really inspired me to think of my own practice and maybe push my own boundaries more.

been thinking about new work as well spring boarding of this degree show and maybe approaching hospitals to show case some of my work.

Addenbrooks Hospital may be a good place to start as l am already an exciting patient there.

felt l needed to add this as it may exsplain some of who l am and why l am the pearson l am today and would to remain this way.

Final push for Degree Show and we are all working hard to make it a good one, l had four days of hard slog and my poor stump is sore from so much walking around.

glad for the bank holiday break to recharge my poor old body.

took some photos of my space to give me a feel of how it will look, need to keep it clean and minimalist so have decided to have just one chair for leg on as its to represent me siting down put leg on.

when l watch this film l feel my eyes well up not sure why, its very close to home l think.
gives me time to put together some more images and get my sketch books up to date, found some more writing l did a while ago on some other idea for work l may do. would also like to try my hand at illustration work but may need some help finding who to speak to and who not to.
