Why paint? I typed that into my browser and came across this http://www.ktauches.com/WHY_PAINT_NOW.html Some of the reasons put forward really strike a chord: As I explore the reaches of technology for economic reasons, I have become more interested in how […]
Well I’m so above you and it’s plain to see but I came to love you anyway… So you pulled my heart out and I don’t mind bleeding, any old time to waiting… waiting… waiting. Now in the previous post […]
I’m preparing to facilitate three workshops at Tate Modern, working with adults and the Ellen Gallagher show. I’ve known Gallagher’s work since 2004, so the opportunity to share, and hopefully inspire others, is such a (terrifying) treat. Having worked as […]
We are excited that our second selected residency starts tomorrow, with a conversation between artist Amelia Crouch and scientist / writer Hugh Aldersey-Williams. The basis of the residency is Thomas Browne’s Pseudodoxia Epidemica, commonly Vulgar Errors and I have been […]
I have now moved into my degree show space. The holes in the wall have been filled and the walls have been painted. I am exciting to start hanging and arranging! Once the chair was in my new space I […]
These are some plans I drew out for my degree show space. I should have really done them in pen as they are a bit difficult to see but hopefully you get the idea. I felt the best way to […]
The end of project ‘Art Practice 2’ is a good time to reassess what I’m doing and my methods of getting there. My Transition and Listen sets of work have had their own momentum and now I feel the need […]
I am now in my degree show space, I have finished pulling out the screws and painting the board and I have been trying out different ways of interacting with the space. I am still not sure yet how the […]
Some sketches of some plans for my degree show set up.
This is it. We have decided to form a group between 3. What next? We have met and are meeting at my studio on a weekly basis to discuss our performance and to collaborate. We are working on Book of […]
Today’s curator meeting has been cancelled and rescheduled. I was a little disappointed, but also a little relieved. I think I just needed a day off of nothingness, allowing myself some thinking time. I’m not quite sure when I last […]
Deep breath – think my G4A application is ready to submit. I am trying to think how best to present my work on paper. I like it just pinned to the wall but when it comes to submitting the work […]
currently chasing up contacts and leads to aid my investigative conversations around showing contemporary art in rural locations. Places that don’t have an established gallery space, and thus an established audience. Though these can be exciting and challenging places to […]
Affixed the brackets and Perspex shelves to the walls and poured the pigment on them. I’m happy with the overall effect of the piece. Touch up a few areas of white paint above the door and marks I had made […]
Sustainability of international female artist led exchange Our main aim during this second POST project was to see if we could develop a way of working that is sustainable in the longer term. This was in the light of our […]
Things are happening… I’ve had a good week with this project today – having a looming deadline and people to work with is definitely helping to push my work on. I met Alasdair Swenson on Monday. He’s an artist who […]
Day 4 of Degree Show put up I spent today doing a quite a bit I feel. Popped to town and brought some more string and some bracket things that are to be attached to the wall with screws and […]
Last post: I have been painting studio space for the last couple of days in preparation to hang my paintings for degree show. There is definitly a feeling in the studios of excitement and camaraderie between students. Work is being […]
Attached I have included an image of what my plan will be for the show layout. This will be changed nearer the time knowing what im like, so for now this is the rough plan.
Probably my final official post on this blog (I should imagine I will still add a couple more posts at some point during the next few weeks of the degree show put up). I feel that as the blog and […]
My work leading up until this point is on http://catherinewynnepaton.tumblr.com/ to give context. In my year (current 2nd) we’ve been stressing over deadlines and yesterday (seems like last week!) I’d handed in everything for the year. It was a delight […]
