Missed a studio meeting on Saturday thanks to planned engineering works taking place on tubes and overland trains going to London Bridge from where I live. Don’t know if the meeting happened, as others were probably affected too. Despaired of […]
An ending of sorts? Yesterday I met with fellow students to take down the Degree Show. As discussed opportunities, residencies and open exhibitions I realised that, after six years of part time study, this is an ending.
Fine Art Degree-Level 6, Final year
Time to shake up my art-practice a little. I am crocheting a set of three baby-blankets that carry injunctions and directly tie in with my inherited memory-project, but also want to explore other angles and approaches that don’t have as […]
LC: After 3 months of planning, selecting artists and setting up the project, it feels great to get the on with the creative aspects of our collaborative project. A strong start to the project on Friday evening with our first […]
Books I’ve borrowed (and read) so far: The sculpture of John Skeaping – Jonathan Blackwood “… critical discussion of contemporary sculpture was key to the creation and maintenance of a network of reliable and sympathetic patrons, without whom any sustainable […]
I am really pleased that I managed to catch the Masterpieces of Chinese Painting show at the V&A. Although it was a wide-ranging survey, organised chronologically from 700-1900, it never felt overwhelming as the number of works had been kept […]
Rubbish Conversation with Lars Tharp at the Hepworth, Wakefield, 19/01/14 The Hepworth ran an #ICollect this weekend with Lars Tharp and I booked onto the Sunday morning session: WHAT IS IT WORTH?: “Ever wondered if you’re sitting on a small […]

Rubbish Conversation with Lars Tharp at the Hepworth, Wakefield, 19/01/14 ..Continued LT: I don’t know what else I can say about this that you don’t already know. AB: I’d like to hear what you think of it’s value. LT: You […]
I have lost my sense of time. Days and particularly weeks are not making any sense to me. This is most likely the result of the ‘sudden’ change in my routine. Most of my weekdays are now spent at Mejan […]
Continuing with the cutouts I have started to work on a theme detour. I have been working with other artists from my Masters degree course and some others as well, as part of a PostMA group supported by Firstsite. We […]
What a brilliant day-for many reasons! Went up to London Art Fair-interesting -learnt it is essential to research the galleries you want to try to exhibit in as they all represent very different work. In the last few years of […]

Have been working some more on the big canvas-will give it a title soon! It looked very ragged round the edges so I painted a dark frame around it yesterday and today finished it off. I has occurred to me […]
Not much to say about the residency at the moment. I wasn’t able to be there over the xmas break for more than a day or two. But nobody else seems to have been there (except Matt) so I don’t […]
