In this article she records her impressions of the galleries she has encountered in the city, and discusses how experiencing a different culture has effected her work as an artist.

hmmm…. I can't decide how best to design my Mini Doll Gallery, so I'm consulting an architect for advice…. (it's my sister!) It should be as cutting edge design as The Guggenheim or White Cube galleries…. http://www.prodesigner.co.uk/modelmaking.html Research is key! […]
Today, I've mostly been using a rotary tool to mechanically scratch paint off the base of a brick column. This has succeeded in giving me a sore back and knees, but as resolutely failed to do what I wanted it […]
I actually wrote this post just before Christmas, but never published it. I've just tweaked it a little to bring it up to date. The week leading up to Christmas was quite manic, I was just looking forward to a […]

I'm expecting a really quiet week on the art front. I won't be into the studio until Friday as I have a packed week full of my son's Christmas parties and concert and Christmas shopping. I am currently awaiting the […]
I'm going to write a post-performance offload of the Headfuck piece I did at the IMT on Friday 12 Dec. I attended only two rehearsals, so I started a day later than everyone else and had to be the new […]

Rather bizarre experience today – I received an email directly addressed to me from a-n about these blogs, only to find I was quoted in the first couple of lines. It’s mildly peculiar to read something addressed to you, that […]
Last Saturday we successfully hosted an informal platform event at Norwich Arts Centre. It was an opportunity for some of our collective to try out performances to a small audience, and then discuss the outcomes afterwards. Rebecca Wigmore opened, with […]
