Clay clay clay, things are just not moving fast enough as I can’t dry out the clay which I make and I then can’t dry out my work in my ‘summer house’ studio – I’ve been driving heavy stuff to […]

I’m not being miserable – it’s the sun in my eyes. I’ve tried this as a painting before, but blowing up a 4 inch early seventies photo to a metre square doesn’t produce the best results, and the girl in […]

ATTACK AND DEFEND I suppose it all began with Stephen Turner’s Seafort project which I followed in 2006 (http://www.seafort.org/) and then my project last year at The Redoubt Fortress in Eastbourne. Whatever the beginning, I have developed a fascination with […]

I’ve had time now to get a sense of the fascinating and various ornament in the church. Behind the altar are gilded inscriptions nestling amidst flourishes in gold on black wood from the 17th century. The ten commandments are there, […]

I collected 2 bags of lost property last week, there are some interesting objects in there so hopefully my next 2 collections will be equally interesting. At the moment I am thinking about the displaying of my objects, I do […]

We have four broad headings for our topics: Illustration/explanation; Art & Illness; Imaging the body; Death, art, culture & medicine. Two of the students have chosen to examine the role of illustration in explanation, so I went to my local […]

www.katebynamglass.co.uk Less than 4 weeks to go! Things seemed to be going well, although I have many things to tie up! Most of the things still do to include the actual presentation of the pieces. My blurb book is coming […]

I will write this retrospectively of time: I initiated a meeting with the University of Brighton and met with Matthew Cornford and Peter Seddon some time in February. We discussed my R&D project talked about how I could get involved […]

Yesterday went quite well, well I thought so at the time. Today I got some feedback on my work, I didn’t really get anything extremely helpful towards the decisions I need to make. I need to figure out quite a […]

Casting in wax continued: So, last night in my blog I had got to the point where the mould had been closed, and Mauro had filled a pan of hot molten wax. He and Carlo then poured the big saucepan […]

The collaborative project that I am involved with is approaching its conclusion, but somehow this last stretch is proving difficult. My poet collaborator’s poem has placed my ‘hoard’ of objects fashioned from goose bones as belonging to a water culture […]

Unbelievably, I don’t know how to make a DVD! I thought I should save my files as “mov” files but that didn’t seem to work!It seems like it should be such a simple and obvious process but I’m stumped! Hopefully […]

My old old phone had a no megapixels camera but took some great photos. This captures the movement of my reluctant sitter’s hand as she waves and screams ‘No Pictures’. This was early on in our relationship and I have […]

Wang Jun open studio When I was in China I met the artist Wang Jun who has a studio at 501 Artspace http://yyyiii.blogcn.com/index.shtml#. He is now the artist in resident at the Chinese Arts Centre and he has been here […]

I haven’t been making over the last two weeks. I was determined to get in the studios and force myself to work, but it didn’t happen. I don’t think that ever happens, you just have to think in those times, […]

Disaster! We turned up to the venue of Aquaphonics at 6.00 pm as arranged to start setting up. We’d got the projectors set up, and were just testing the cameras when the manager came in and said: “Look, You can’t […]

An unsettling dream of creating art from life… I awoke a few weeks ago from a vivid dream involving the creation of a sculptural installation. When I dream about making art (which happens only rarely) I pay attention- writing the […]

Event 10 Blast Theory weekender Artsadmin, Toynbee Studios, London 27-28.03.10 This was a brilliant way to finish my R&D project because it gave me a chance to put into practice some of the themes I have been working on over […]

Finally, after almost a weeks install, the artist collective C-O-L-L-I-D-E-R and other regional (Eastern) artists collectives got together for the show ‘Wysing Arts Contemporary Presents’, in Cambridge. Our collective, C-O-L-L-I-D-E-R was ambitious in terms of making two structures interlinked by […]

i’ve enjoyed myself this morning, chatting with mr gilbert. made a little mistake in not eating enough prior to the afternoon meeting. not eating affects my mood rather. something i am aware of and something of a project yet to […]
