I haven’t posted in over a month, I think it’s because my momentum has slowed some what. I have completed the September challenge, not desperately successful, but completed none the less. I attempted to fly a kite for 2.5 hours […]

The art auction raised over £2500 for the Pakistani Flood appeal. Everything was sold. I don’t know who bought mine and what it went for. I think the organisers will have enough on sorting out payment and admin etc. so […]

Eating paper ‘A few months before Salvador Dali died I was at a gallery in San Francisco, who featured him. They had a video playing continually of him, rolling paper up in a ball and eating it. True. I was […]

Here are a few of Sam West‘s aims and ambitions: o to develop sustainable artist networks that function outside traditional economic frameworks, o to develop models of mutual peer support and provision which bypass the need for government funding, o […]

after all the planning, discussions and testing of childrens tasks we got out for a fantastic session on Dartmoor. Went really well with good feedback from everyone involved (the other artists, the park rangers and the school). The young people […]

Sporting League: Game 17 Sporting Radio: Pundit X: ‘This Tranquilayers team is in a transition period, I was well pleased with the win over Chamber but I’m pretty sure the press have got the knives out too early…’ Pundit Y: […]

We’ve had a good response to THE COCKFIGHT and so we’ve decided to keep the work up for another week, so more people can see it. We’ve taken a few more and better pictures too. Jon is still working in […]

So what’s been happening with this slow-burning project during the first part of 2011? Well, a couple of things. Firstly, there have been several visits to hills in order to nab them and add them to the collection. Many a […]

Generally a positive response to our presentation this morning. Unlike a performance (which it was viewed by some as) it was calm, casual and lighthearted. An approach that was questioned, mainly I think because of the formal way we had […]

No two days are ever quite the same. This drawing, if it is a drawing, arose from a total loss of idea. It is a mindless act, but impossible not to think about. Each day, adding more dots, I become […]

Alastair MacLennan performance/actuation on Saturday at 25SG, excellent. There was also a talk by Ben Ponton and discussion about documentation in Performance Art on Sunday. The ephemeral nature of performance and its resistance to commodification are some of its attractions, […]

The Sporting League: Game 16 Sporting Radio: Pundit x: ‘Turgid, turgid, turgid! How can that be a good advert for The Sporting League? That was the most defensive game I’ve seen in the last ten years. You know, it gets […]

These days I’m making models, mainly out of wire. Here’s a first attempt, incorporating forks again.

I came across Antoni’s work in ‘The artists body’ a book by Tracey Warr. It was right at the beginning of my MA in October when I first saw the sticking black and white image of a woman with her […]

continued from last post This is interesting that Antoni did not see the first performance as a success. I had not considered that she may have performed ‘Loving Care’ more than once but it seems that it was performed on […]
