The piece I have constructed most recently conforms to the second approach of focussing on the object and what it means to me; the significance of the collection and what it represents conceptually. The installation, which at the moment is […]

Although the shadows accentuate the detail of each key and bring the viewer into the space, I came to notice that the installation worked just as well in daylight with the bulb turned off. I spent a long while on […]

Sporting League: Game 9 ‘We have belief, confidence, we’re committed…’ so said the Novia boss after a confident performance against Zindustrious running out 3-1 winners at the end of the ninety minutes…Tranquilayers seemed to end the Red Star title campaign […]

And hello sunshine! I feel as though I have woken from hibernation… And in a sense, I have. I haven’t done much during the dark winter months, and last week, woke up and had a studio photographic session of my […]

‘The body is gendered…The body can thus be seen not as a blank, passive page, a neutral ground of meaning, but as an active, productive ‘whiteness’…The woman artist thus transgresses both what it is to be an artist and what […]

Huzzah! My modules have finally been sorted out! It’s great that I pay loads of money without any kind of help or funding to be at this extremely well-organised establishment… Anyway, I now have print-outs of my research images (thankyou […]

I have been neglecting the blog slightly as I was away on a trip to Shenzhen and Guangzhou with the other CEAC artists and recently returned. It is a bit hard to understand how the spaces function for me as […]

“The Waiting Game” – Tulum, Mexico I took this photo on a recent visit to Mexico. It was terribly hot and it was the last photo I took at the end of a long and exhausting day exploring some Mayan […]

Installation day yesterday. I set out from Cross Roads with my pasting table and contents, struggling on the bus and train with it, bumping into lots of people, apologising profusely. Its less portable and much heavier than I thought but […]

While the painting has had its ups and downs : ) but the video…. well had to use cherry picker that was outside room o.102 Strangers observing the room

My computer is still broken. I picked it up from the repairers a week ago, it worked briefly … and died again on the same day. Apparently the power jack isn’t the problem. I have managed to rescue the data […]

Time to start MAKING……. Over the last month, I have been so consumed by thoughts of repetition and collecting that I have inadvertently (if only temporarily) disregarded the physical making element of the work. I have recently realised that there […]

Preparations for THE COCKFIGHT are underway. The studio is being prepared and will be hermetically sealed (at least in principle) from the weekend until the 17th. The idea of using the studio for thises kind of experimental things is really […]

My husband is fond of saying ‘HOW CAN I SOAR LIKE AN EAGLE WHEN I’M SURROUNDED BY TURKEYS?’ Today is a turkey day. I have always rather liked turkeys.

I’ve been looking at William Pope.L’s Eating the Wall Street Journal today. For this work which he performed on several occasions Pope.L peruses, reads from, eats and then spits out sections of this newspaper which reports on economic and business […]

International Women’s Day Performance in University canteen. This was a rather hastily thought out event. I set up a bowl of soapy water and proceeded to wash a white cloth which had a red stain on it. My intention was […]
