To preface a new ongoing series exploring relationships between artists and their collaborators, we asked some of today’s most interesting curators for insights into their practices.

The London trip was really positive – The Bosigran Project received lots of support and encouragement at the conference which has boosted us all and bodes well for future developments… Meanwhile we are pushing on with funding applications for this […]
Off to the Royal Cornwall Museum in Truro again today – went last week but there was so much stuff to go through, I need at least another day. I found the most amazing documents from the early 1600's – […]
This project feels vast! So I thought it would be useful to jot down some of the emerging themes, strands of enquiry: * layers of history, cycles of change, inter-relationships – the socio-cultural landscape and the ecological heath, mapping * […]
The point of this blog was to talk about setting up studios, but as we have been in Harrington Mills for a year now, I think it is time to close this blog. I have just returned from an amazing […]
I've found myself with some unexpectec time to myself this morning, as the session I was supposed to have has been cancelled. This is the first day I've managed to come into uni since Easter – the term started on […]
My 2,000 words a day regime is slipping – instead of 7.30am it is nearer 8.30am before I switch on the computer. Still we are getting there.. For relaxation I trawl through some of the other blogs on this site […]
Ever accidentally dropped a tin of paint down the stairs?…I just have. The mind, the imagination, the terror, is all focused in slow-motion. All I could do was stand helpless and stiffly on the stepladder, wide-eyed in stunned, expletive silence […]
Right, I don't know why my picture is still up as latest updated blog, as that is not true (well maybe at this EXACT MOMENT) but pfft! Making progress in the workshop. Not only did I get in for 9am […]
After stressing out about the space I need to host my work for the degree show I have come to realise that I have been wasting precious time. Now I have started three or my four final canvases, I have […]
So where does the Zen come in then? Well, hours and hours of cracking rocks day in day out is a pretty boring task and the mind is needed only in very limited descision making so a higher mind set […]
I'm so awake. I’ve got this excitement inside and its only 7.12am . Recently I didn’t know this time even existed. It is amazing. The sun has just begun to hit the walls of my room. Glowing an orangey yellow. […]
Having restored, designed and built hundreds of gardens, I actually have grown to love weeds…and having read architecture for three years, I love playing with perspective that is incongruous and doesn't actually work…
Go round old studios you used to 'practice' in and look in drawers, for every ten drawers you look in you will find one important sketchbook. Its a feeble attempt to denote a certain 'process' to collecting inspiration but if […]
The project at the Lightbox is soon to start and preparations are well underway. There have been issues over funding for the project as a whole in these slightly uncertain days but now the basis of the larger project (into […]
and i spent all day yesterday casting, i managed to do both my arms, not perfect, but workable. and i was planning to do my head today but things needed to be printed and stuff needs to be bought so […]
The Third Child Taking on what I wrote last time, I notice that the way I am (attempting) to continue my practice at the moment, almost 6 months into my second childs life, is very similar to the way I […]
Student Panic in Masters Application Cock-up Well the Easter break is now over, and I must admit that I didn’t manage to get very much done. With three weeks to spare, which seemed to stretch on into the far distance, […]
AirSpace have started workshops! We have now completed two workshop sessions: A Series of Unlikely Events: with Creative Partnerships at Grove Junior School, Northwood, Stoke on Trent. We had a great time teaching year 5 at Grove junior school about […]
