Here there’s something, a foot When something is afoot it is also a foot that itches and keeps you awake at night. The window of my bedroom faces east so I get the sun in the morning before touching upon […]
I’ve had some of my work displayed around the school recently and as always it’s interesting to see the work in a different space, and how each piece of work relates to the next. Some go together quite obviously, and […]
INTERVIEW: I recently interviewed award-winning a-n blogger, artist and gallery manager Rosalind Davis regarding her experience setting up Core Gallery, Deptford, London. You can view the interview now on my website. I’m really grateful to Rosalind for the time she […]
I’ve just had my first thunder storm experience here at i-park, there has been an almighty downpour following a really gloopy, humid day where you almost feel choked when breathing in. It’s a strange and uncomfortable type of heat, like […]
I am afraid I have been neglecting the blog again- I have been finishing up 2 interviews and I wrote quite a bit! Becky Hunter interviewed me for her website as she is going to set up an artist led […]
Today was the first day of drawing up the design for the set in work. I managed to almost sketch it all today, so tommorrow I can start filling it in. As there’s only this week to get it all […]
After just whining on about the fact that I didn’t have anything on after YSP, I had a little flurry of emails for autumn projects. Not that these people read my blog – more likely this is the short turnround […]
Blisters and teeth I have developed a blister on the finger tip of my right hand from applying pressure to plasticene – and feel strangely pleased with it. It’s the physical evidence of hard work. After final tweaks to a […]
“I could be bounded in a nutshell and count myself king of infinite space…” Shakespeare (Hamlet) I love manifestos. They are a very useful tool for collaboration – in fact, Tenneson and Dale write one for each piece of work […]
The origins of the Artscape Project can be found in 2001 when a small group of artists lead by Hilary Lawson, a philosopher and documentary film maker, attempted to escape the limitations of the traditional video narrative and began to […]
DRAWING BOOKS I’ve just completed 8 books of drawings, 110 pages each. Why? Well, I draw all day every day; it’s a full time job and I do it so much that after a time the drawings come out of […]
I am feeling a bit more confident now that the work is going to happen. I managed to put a few good hours into the cutting and the map is beginning to transform. You can see how the folds seem […]
At restaurant dissonance I waited for half an hour after passing the friend I was supposed to meet on time in the street (we didn’t see each other the first time). She had with her another extended friend in the […]
At last I’ve done it… made a video featuring my interview with Norbert Herz, the intern at the camp at Rivesaltes during 1942. I have been debating whether or not to make my videos self-explanatory, less abstract and more descriptive. […]
Collaboration1 took form on the night of the preview with the space being used as close to our intentions as it was possible on the Private View Evening 25.06.2010. As is usual with my work I end up right amongst […]
The more finished ‘Tiergarten’ and ‘Ice Park’ but I may still change them.
I’ve been working with a bunch of young staff from London’s major cultural organisations on Seven Days in Seven Dials; a week in the life of London’s Culture Quarters. The staff are all part of the Culture Quarter Programme, a […]
I’ve been trying to juggle my art practice, full time work and an emmerging writing practice over the last few months… Below is an exerpt from a piece I wrote for Darren Banks (http://www.darrenbanks.co.uk/) about his Blobs series of drawings […]
And a little door opens… The productivity roller-coaster continues and who knows where it leads? Today was on the up and very productive. I now have in total 18 new pieces of work, which with the 5 pre-existing ones brings […]
