Well, i’ve been awfully rubbish at blogging. I know. But i’ve been so busy…. I finally got round to making some work, although i haven’t been able to finish the big projects that are on the list. I’m curating the […]
Our forst show, Part I closed a few weeks ago now, and has given some time for reflection. It has been easy to see the positives; a good forst move, a show of new work where each artist pushed their […]
It’s three weeks after my last stint on the stairs and I’ve spent that time thinking abut what I learnt and deciding what I want to take forward. Work (the paying kind) has taken over for a while but I’m […]

LACE AND OTHER THINGS……. 26.11.09 Well, I have neglected my blog writing for the past month it would seem. I think I have been a little distracted, by what I am not so sure. Pulling apart my art practice has […]
Well, a month has passed and I’m beginning to realise how much slower things move outside the comfort of the art school environment. I finally graduated at the beginning of November which was great, apart from having to come up […]
i’ve been spending time feeling a little more like i know what i’m doing. the open dialogue, after a i r time was such good time well spent last wednesday. if you’ve not got to an a i r time […]

EXPERIMENT I am nearly two months into my MA at Wimbledon. Three weeks ago during my first tutorial I was encouraged to experiment more. I gave myself a task – i bought a new sketch book and told myself to […]
I found last night’s “Where is Modern Art Now?”, on the BBC, heartening. Gus Casely-Hayford (GC-H) explored the position of the current art scene during the recession and post YBA celebrity bling. He asked: ‘Where do you go when being […]
Sharing with Rachael today and considering that not only is it important for the work to flow naturally, but the collaboration itself does too and it is, which is good. We have not had chance for many meetings, but it […]

Hello Sorry for the late bulletin this week, we wanted the new issue out before we did it but the printer has been playing us up so it looks like a Wednesday release now but it’s a good one, if […]
Eleonora Schinella considers the alternative perspectives on the art world through both the exhibitions reviewed, and the reviews themselves when researching Interface as an alternative archive.
Well it is certainly an interesting collaboration with Rachael. The instinctive element to our ideas, forming whilst working on our own, is as mysterious as the project, in a good way. I don’t know whether it is the House, or […]
Very busy week, exciting in work as The Forestry Commission have just agreed to re-instate Raumlabor’s Jantar Mantar for one day only in Southport, so I’m busy helping organise that. Photo here if you want to see it. http://www.flickr.com/photos/liverpoolbiennial/393… I […]
