Our drawing of a clay object made by our middle child.

A space of 20 days.. Remnants of easter lillies and basement voices, and the soundscape today is ‘spoken’ in long sentences of repair.. Acts of sifting through light and images, being drawn towards circular framing, liquid screen. I project another […]

Thoughts on this collaboration: As I see it there are three players in this new collaboration: me, Halen Mon, and the salts in between, and all are unknown factors at this point in time. Me. I know I’m excited by […]

Planning and Proposing My next Re:view meetings are in Coventry and I need to arrange a date to see Martin Roberts, Senior Curator at the Herbert Gallery and performer Pru Porretta (http://www.theherbert.org). It may seem a bit off the beaten […]

1/ INTRODUCTION: COLLABORATING WITH A LEARNING DISABLED ARTIST As an artist who creates permanent and temporary public art installations, collaboration has always been at the centre of my practice. My artwork focuses on the themes of engagement and interaction, from […]

2/ RESEARCH : MEETING THE ARTISTS It is here that I start my search for an artist who might be willing to work with me, visiting the studio projects to meet the artists and introduce myself. Each artist tutor has […]

4/ BUILDING A COLLABORATIVE PARTNERSHIP: A DAY IN THE STUDIO (part 2) With no clear plan of how to begin and where it would all lead, the collaborative day at last arrived. Siobhan and I had previously considered ways of […]

5/ BUILDING A COLLABORATIVE PARTNERSHIP: A DAY IN THE STUDIO (part 3) Following a well-earned lunch break, we resumed work, adding some contrastingly soft wool fibre into the spaces within the frame. Returning to the predominantly yellow, free standing structure […]

6/ SUMMARY: JOURNEYING FORWARD Our day in the studio was the first step towards what hopes to develop into a longer term collaborative partnership. Linda’s response to the day had shown that she was happy to work with me in […]

For me, my work is a mirror of my life. That is certainly true of a lot of artists, in particular Tracey Emin whose work relates events from her life. I find it fascinating the way her contemporary Gillian Wearing-a […]

I’ve been in the sudio this week surrendered to the idea of play and experiment. I’ve been using Mondrian grids as a kind of portal that leads from my practice to form an interface with Josh’s photographic work and by […]

The Degree show looms. I have decided that I am just showing my 90 pieces and also a book of prints of The Patriarchal Society. So, now I am working on the book and it is time consuming! I think […]

Positive and Negative space I First came across the idea of positive and negative space whilst researching artists to analyse for my dissertation. Takahiro Iwasaki is a Japanese artist who meticulously creates minute sculptures from everyday objects. For example he […]

Bank holiday over, back to routine and to the workload. (For about 3 minutes I was just thinking about moaning here but I have decided to not do it and instead go straight to the point). I have had to […]

With just a few weeks to go ’til the joy of the Degree Show, there’s not really any point in me pretending that I’ll post frequently on here – but I certainly will post enough to show the whole process […]

The Sporting League: Game 17 Pointeso and Kite Vale cancelled each other out in this chess fest resulting in a nil – nil draw. Sporting Radio Pundit X: ‘Lets just say there was none of the ol’ champagne football out […]

Fantastic Tales: Danish Contemporary Ceramics opening event 1st May 2014 The Fantastic Tales opening was a huge success. The Ceramic House was packed with guests from all over the UK and Denmark. I am ecstatic and proud that 11 of […]
