I’m inclined to believe that it’s difficult to create a ‘whole’ project without there being a series of judgements of all the ‘parts’ along the way; that is, if you’re seen to be making it. I’m not a big fan […]

It’s the 1st April today: beautiful sunshine, warm – it has been a long winter. I I have been asked to design a book cover and characters for a fantasy novel. The subject, warfare and battles, set in a vaguely […]

Swimming [JP] Ok, so yeah I was honest. Brutally honest in my sum up the other day of how I feel now that I am away from the ecstatic embrace of our residency. Vacant, left wondering. Unable to focus too […]

It is important not to ‘will’ slippage. The building breaths differently today, just the end wall is still covered with a polythene skin. From behind it, fragments of speech, directions given in a low key, and a slow granular scraping, […]

April Fools Back to basics: How to tackle an impossible task 1. Define the job 2. Dress for the occasion 3. Gather appropriate materials and tools 4. WORK (repeat)

A couple of years ago I bought what was listed as a 1930’s baby’s sailor-suit on ebay. It arrived carefully pressed and folded in layers of tissue paper and the moments of unwrapping were precious. A gift from the past […]

…and now we are five. Debra went to pick up the ‘boys’ from the airport last night, while Jean and I just chilled. It was good to unwind and sit in the quiet for a bit though before all the […]

Construction Project Day #14 Lots of people have been interested to hear whether working in such close proximity to my mum in the studio affected what either of us made on day 13. It was certainly a healthy exercise as […]

Liquidtex On the painting that I have been videoing, I have used the Liquidtex Pouring Medium. It has done exactly what I wanted it to do and has held all the beautiful lines and marbled shapes through the drying process […]

Today I continued with painting my large canvas. As you can see in the picture I have got a lot more of the sky and some more of the sea done. I like how the sky has turned out, however […]

Today Micheal Landy gave a talk at our university, I particually liked his talk on his most recent work Saints Alive, probably because it resonated with my project. He talked about what his Inspirations were for this particular project, to […]

I am looking at rituals within the catholic church, and was thinking about Incense burning, the purification and sancification. The smoke symbolizes the prayers drifting up to heaven: The Psalmist prays “let my prayer come like Incense before you”. Insence […]

In respect of contextualisation i have many influences which some i have already posted and now i have some more recent realisations. These were forgotten to an extent deep in my mind. Such creators as Marina Abramovic, Yoko Ono and […]
