Spent much of yesterday despite my best intentions, phoning and emailing. I had to finalize some project dates for the Summer and sort out some publicity. I have realized since the begining of the project just how useful a curator […]

Today seemed like a good day for the vigil. Well, I say 'vigil' but it was never going to compete with the kind of thing medieval people did. It's recorded that parishes had to find money to supply beer and […]

Early walk before breakfast doing some simple photography with found objects before leaving for New York where life will be anything but quiet…

Yesterday – another Sunday afternoon bike ride around Wood Dalling, stopping off at the church of course. This is a big village! Not that there are many houses, but they lie in little hamlets: 'Red Pits', 'Foundry Hill', 'Crabgate' and […]

Thinking about the business card – highly regarded in Asian countries, and I want to have some of my info in Chinese on the card. Have looked up my surname in the very useful online Chinese dictionary at yellowbridge.com and […]

It was an early start this morning, 7am! We went to visit the Prajapat Colony in Uttam Nagar, a ceramic community just on the outskirts of Delhi. Even with our guide and experienced taxi driver we had considerable difficulty negotiating […]

We also visited the Prajapat community. There are about 300 working potters on the site, spread over several acres. Everywhere you look there are terracotta water vessels and ceramic containers including small cups, money boxes and flowerpots, even the walls […]

just a quick one befote i shoot off to space studios to burn dvds for the installation. i'm being more and more nervous about everything and my back is not helping either. started fixing screens, stephen emmott, an old friend […]

The New Writing is done…and is finished with for the moment…which is fantastic… I think it was ok in the end…it said what I wanted about storytelling and creating lives. It included many quotes from people who have inspired me…and […]

did lots today, very pleased with myself! photoshopped the photos that i chose, upping the contrast a bit so i get some good shadows, then printed them. i took loads of photos today, of the actual process, so you’ll be […]

here are the ones of olivia, and of my degree show layout, and a photo of my studio space.

I like to get out before breakfast with my camera at this time of the year and work with objects I have collected and kept in my studio, like this bone from a sheep.

Ok I’ve got three initial ideas to pitch to the steering group, actually i’ve got lots of ideas but many are terrible and others will probably be chucked because of bad taste. I’m about to start a residency/exhibition in Bury […]

Contemplating the week ahead I am aiming to redress the balance of the project which until now has been fairly heavily weighted towards working with other people either in workshops at the studio and schools or out in the landscape. […]

Well finally here and online! Arrived in Delhi very early Monday morning! Flight was good and the transition to the Sanskriti Kendra relatively smooth from Delhi airport, only a 30 min journey. Slowly getting to grips with the workings of […]
