It was just such a lovely civilised Saturday evening…with a close school friend, since the age of seven, his family and others…greeted warmly with champagne, quail eggs, canapes…and a string quartet in the drawing room. As we left in the […]
Last Sunday the Bargehouse exhibition ended. I spent the day around the show and had some really interesting discussions with visitors on that last day. Specifically memorable was a blind group that Rita had invited to the show. I was […]
I have received over 1,000 images for my internet based community project "Children of Craig-y-nos", photos taken mainly by children using Brownie box cameras as they recorded their experiences of life inside a TB sanatorium some 50 years ago. This […]
Incipit The first post of this blog describes the focus of the NAN event in France, The Artist As Social Entrepreneur. During the event, organised by NAN and Fabrica, Brighton, which involved 15 artists from all around the UK and […]

An art and economics philosophy blog by Emilia Telese
I'd started to drop behind in my self imposed schedule so I ventured into Uni today (Saturday). I half expected to see other fine art students working seeing as we only have about 6 weeks left. No, the studios were […]
Feeling fine with the mosaic. I will cut off the lower section tommorrow. So I am almost half way through. The 'madness' has not yet arrived. The work has been interupted by other things and broken up the mind numbing […]
Just returned…from an early morning walk on the beach with Smartie. It cleared my head and got me thinking. It's too easy to be negative and I'm not a negative person. Striking a balance in this blog between discourse and […]
After finishing the images I sat with them, watched them, and realised they where not fully communicating what I wanted them to communicate. I worked further into the two portrates of my father, they now communicate -i feel- the image […]
So as I come to the end of this project what am I communicating with you in these last images, what is it that I want you all to know after being so open when normally I am so very […]
But what happend when you cant let go, when you cant walk away! You find yourself ordering stretchers from catalogues, running to shops to grab whatever stretchers they have just to continue with your mark making, because you can not […]

Another aspect of Invigilator:Digbeth are the 'emotion grids' that participants were asked to fill in when at the work place. I spent some time last night looking at these and the accompanying emotional words list – a list of emotionally […]
I've been working from home yesterday and today, a combination of a lot of paperwork to do and childcare problems. I'm probably going have to work over the weekend painting as I am starting to get behind schedule. I finished […]
Just realised that haven't actually explained at all what I am doing. To be honest, I'm not entirely sure either. Have hit that momnet where you question everything you're doing- does it make sense? Is it any good? What the […]
This year the "Month of Photography" is curated by artist Manit Sriwanichpoom under the loose theme "Portraits"- so I've chosen my favourite action heroes Bruce Lee, Sylvester Stallone, Jaa Panom (Tony Jaa) and Jean-Claude Van Damme. They are paired off […]
It is a month since I last wrote and I feel I have wasted a lot of time instead of being productive. I have made some stock for my future exhibitions, but I am quite stuck in ideas and feel […]
