Hayward Gallery Project Space, London
12 January – 27 February 2011
Week 3 The third week of my last semester. I’m doing a fantastic art history course entitled The Space for Art: From Imrpressionism to Relational Aesthetics. So far great, challenging readings and a relaxed atmosphere which is really what you […]
I’m trying to find out what the formal difference is between the imperative and indicative moods in BSL, so I know whether instructing will look different from describing. In English you can’t quite conflate the two moods into a single […]
So bringing together autobiographical content with the process of collecting, organising and displaying objects is my current challenge. I need to find the balance between the two major elements of ‘concept’ and ‘process’. SELECTION In order for me to represent […]
I went to the opening of a show on Friday, works by two artists I vaguely know. The first: Doris Schlapfer, a friend of an artist who lives in the village and the second: Patrick Sauze who coincidently owns a […]
Just before Christmas I attempted to combine all of these thoughts mentioned in the last post, within an artwork about personal heritage and ‘bloodlines’. It was actually more of an experiment with how objects can be displayed within a space, […]
I decided to write about this project rather than other ones that I have been involved in as I felt that it may be of interest to show the diverse directions that artists find themselves going in, particulary in this […]
been finalising the schools ‘deep learning day’, where children will be undertaken some field research. They will then be taking this back to school to compile and place in their specially created containers. The crucial question I’d like them to […]
It was necessary to start another blog. This sister blog if you like, charts the progress of the project I’m pushing forward in Salisbury. In short I am juggling two blogs. Try as I might, my juggling skills are seriously […]
It’s been a fixture list brimming with injuries, namely to Novia’s no1 player as they went down 2-1 at home to a bruising Dons side…Red Star narrowed the gap at the top to just 2 points after dispatching a fatigued […]
Back to civilisation (well, connectivity), central heating and my family – ah lovely – after a bit of a cold wet stay in Italy. I was back in Pietrasanta to finish a bronze. It was great seeing lots of friends […]
I have been meddling with some moving image as part of L/B/P. An element of the project has enabled us to identify our needs in terms of support and CPD, and working with digital media was something we all needed […]
to o p e n three women, three countries, three labouring intense, concentrated and meditative durational works. Helena Hamilton (NI), Maria Dos Milagres (PT) and Stephanie Hurst (USA), each transfixed in solitary repetition committed to their actions. These bodies opened […]
I had a little test read of a short ‘googlized’ text with Jia and it does indeed sound quite funny when the two of us read it. For Saturday we will try it out as an introduction to the main […]
Assessments are all completed and the results are in! With a 64% achieved in Theory and a 60% in practice I can safely say I’m a happy bunny … I think I need to back track here slightly as I’ve […]
Spent part of Monday researching textiles and other materials. This involved going round shops including Matalan, Primark, and Wilkinson’s. I realise I must have looked highly suspicious studying various odd articles in minute detail, not least because I came away […]
Socially engaged / shared / participatory / collaborative practices – these are some of the areas that we are looking into as part of our research and co-mentoring. We are interested in artists/artist-led projects / organisations working with people and […]
