Another artist on a-n suggested to me to look at the artist Bela Kolarova whose work I hadn’t seen before now, but I really like her work. Her work is a lot about feminism and waste materials. She uses the […]
A few weeks ago I was sitting in my car, waiting, when a man dressed all in black walked past. It was a sunny morning and the effect of his clothes seemed to me, at that moment, to suggest that […]

Back to the projector idea with the zoetrope for inspiration. I had attempted to finish making the structure with the materials that I had previously used. When putting this together there was the problem of the metal being too flimsy, […]
