I have made and painted 5 more Continuous Profiles of Oliver Cromwell, this time with more detain in the hair, with a wart and a darker green. I have decided to display them using cardboard postal tubes as plinths and […]

The final day of my degree. It’s not even the final day, I have less than 24 hours left. And I feel like I’m stalling. I have to polish off my sketchbooks to be assessed and I don’t feel like […]

We were spoilt on our Scottish beach site. The midges couldn’t get to us because it was too windy and the rain was doing stuff somewhere else. So, after a few days back in proper Scotland we thought we’d escape […]

Right. I’m going to try to conjure the solution to this documentation problem by writing this post. All day I’ve been trying to write a text that stands in for a performance I developed and realized earlier this month, but […]

Been a bit awol haven’t I? This last couple of weeks has been fairly manic! Several things have happened that I should have written about, but because there is some time lost, they have lost their immediacy. It’s hard to […]

Engineering workshop and bridge talk I started to document Derek’s / the engineering workshop last week where there are mills and lathes – some old some very new. We discussed the transition from traditional towards computer operated processes and the […]

This is a quick edit of my most recent film . It is a piece about the idea of idealism, based on photographs taken at Black Mountain College. The film represents the zen approach to physical activity… Through years of […]

TWO WEEKS AND COUNTING Just two weeks left until I leave for the Isle of Wight where I’ll have four days in which to install my show. I’m still finishing off new work – in fact I’m only just starting […]

All that structure is reduced to surface and slices Once the CAD image is complete it needs to be translated into a STL (Stereolithography) file so the RP software and machines can understand it. All the work with planes, parallels […]

Is Video and art on the Internet the Future? This is a walk around my mosaic depicting the history of Witney. I dont even profess to be a video artist. But I wanted to make a sound track to go […]

The Made to Measure exhibition is up at New Brewery Arts, Cirencester, till 30th May. Apparently being received well, and people visiting. I’ll be manning the studio next week on 26th and 27th May. I’m wanting to move onto a […]

Shouldn’t be writing – should be packing! I’m heading off to Stroud in a few minutes to catch the last weekend of the Stroud International Textile Festival. http://www.stroudinternationaltextiles.org.uk/ The sun is shining, we’re camping at a lovely site and alls […]

Here are some of my latest works… Road Roller – A Talking City Commission

Hazard Perception (part ii) opened this week. Which means that this time last week I was just back from a very brief trip to London. It was good to see Charlie again. My work is in the gallery window and […]

A sense of community with other artists is important to me. But I’ve never been someone who is comfortable networking in the traditional way: cosying up to the ‘right’ people at exhibition openings, for example. Which is part of the […]

Nathalie Bouleau Chabot When he is approaching nearer to being and his eye is turned towards more real existence, he has a clearer vision, -what will be his reply? And you may further imagine that his instructor is pointing to […]

“As Wolfgang Laib sees it, the potential of his art is diminished when it becomes disconnected from everyday life.”

…And here it is. The Graduate Exhibition. Three years have passed by and it doesn’t feel like two minutes. I never expected anything, I went in with open eyes but a strong sense of self. I have always questioned as […]

I think I’ve solved part of the problem. In my last post I was concerned about misrepresenting some of my work by putting documentation and original works together in the same publication. I was concerned that if the works were […]

I am moving house this weekend. The new place is tiny compared to my student pad and there is definitely no where to make any work… let alone store my degree stuff! I am desperate to find studio space. who’d […]
