Awake early. A short pep talk from Claire on the phone last night who said: when in doubt, draw. So I’ve had a few thoughts about that. I figured that rather than try to sleep with building work noises outside, […]

The next day was marked by a few fascinating discoveries. Jan and Gary (Jan’s partner) met us over breakfast and told us of a time when Gary had walked into “Awabi” to turn down the bed only to discover one […]

Mmmm, the holiday was a welcomed break. I couldn’t completely switch off from the general feeling of impending doom deep in my gut but did occasionally drift away and forget myself and the tension. We hardly even mentioned the words…art, […]

If anyone has a few spare minutes perhaps you could go here: http://www.greatbritons.ba.com/users/16501 You have to sign up I’m afraid and can either leave a (nice!) comment on my profile or give it 5 stars by clicking on the last […]

After a really good and productive experience in Gower, in residence with Jenny I return to normality for a while, well for a week anyhow. Whats been different; I have developed a love of horses- found a male that I […]

Sandon: Day 1 Rules •Children must be accompanied by a responsible adult. •It is now costing us to have waste removed. Take your rubbish home with you. •Recycle as much waste as possible. •The council now gives permission for this […]

Day 2: Quote for door came back as £375 + VAT. More than I was expecting and showing no signs of charity. Rethink- Toms Dad! He would do it for half the price- A better option also as I will […]

Have been thinking about writing, more than making art, the past few days… Have been reading a lot of Anne Lamott’s old Salon articles here and attempting to write some short stories based on childhood memories of sweaty prophesying figures […]

As I mentioned earlier, I thought the Capital of Culture year in Liverpool pretty much ignored and perhaps even took money out of (?) the grassroots art culture (some of the best, fiestyest and most innovative in the country may […]

Dominique here. Today we were interviewed at Preston FM by two lovely ladies in an incredibly hot room, made hotter by my nerves as it was my first time on the radio. I was hoping to stay quiet and let […]

Random Inspirations Peter and his knowledge of machines Old photos (he has worked at The Engineerium for 30 years) Archives East Sussex Archives’ Ledgers, diaries 1876-1900’s for their imagery and Victorian turn of phrase. Ham Baker and Co catalogue, makers […]

Deciding to use the following day to work we went in search of a quiet bar to discuss things further and eventually ended up in a small restaurant. As we had not booked we settled, rather happily, for a table […]

Press conference this morning. By being in the main drag of the river, rather than at the edge, we managed to commit to the river as an idea. It created a scene for the press and keep a distance from […]

The day i was utterly dreading (results day) has been and gone, and absolutely left me over the moon, surprised and relieved. I really did believe i was going to get a low grade but as it turns out, i […]

had a bit of a break from the group and left them to get on with things, see how far they would get. As I joined a team of seven artists on the Glastonbury site this year to work on […]

When I started this blog yesterday I had the vague idea in mind that I would begin exploring my own practice by asking others about theirs. I don’t know if that will help me, but whenever I see a prolific […]

My work is coming together for the residency at g39 in September. I am currently working on sounds that I recorded on my trip to London to meet a couple of Russian ladies regarding selling my work. I was fortunate […]
