I have failed. Admitting it is both a relief and shock. I am not used to failing at things but in this case there is no getting around it. It is quite a spectacular fail too – so I feel […]

  I have been playing a wee game this week – inspired by an announcement about an advanced research masters for artists and designers. It is very easy and very enjoyable, you simply read any academic call and say “making” […]

The Edit So much of what I present to the public relies upon the edit. The judicious pruning. I’m not sure what percentage of my time is spent doing this – either consciously or subconsciously. But each piece of work, […]

Front cover: Back cover:   Initially, the idea for a book was very different to the book now. The working concept of the book is the loose associations between objects, labels and diagrams, and the formations of metaphors. I changed […]

In Swedish one often says ’both and’ rather than just ’both’ – as in ’I want to have both’ (Jag vill ha både och). This feels particularly relevant at the moment. In eleven days I will have two studios: one […]

Taking part in this activity has allowed us to do some good, unhurried thinking at several levels. On the most zoomed-out plane, we’ve been part of a national network of artists grappling with some similar ideas, but skewering them from […]

I didn’t write these blogs as the activity was happening because they’d have been boring descriptions rather than semi-interesting explanations. We were doing stuff without knowing what was going to happen, so a bit of time to think about why […]

Almost exactly as I made that last post I got a message letting me know that there are two studios still available at the Hospital and that I was very welcome to come look at them! I read the mail […]

For my first post I will be looking at the website of artist Graham Crowley. We had an Artists Talk with him this week in which we saw his work first hand, and so it was good to also look […]

Extracts from our conversation presented as a stream of consciousness. The two accompanying images depict public placements of some of the text extracts.   Three is the magic number so they say. Where’s my pen. Where’s my tea. How does […]

After my meeting and group crit with my class on the 29/01/21, I decided to use new content in for the projection as said previously the film wasn’t working due to the change in colour, lighting when I walk – […]

We as a group decided to trial a continual walk film which turned out to be very difficult, the slight wrong move and a shot was ruined. This is a whole new aspect to learn/work with how to document my […]

The theme for this session was ‘Relationship between art and society’ and it was our last bursary supported session. It was led by Catherine Harrington and myself. We started by looking at images of artworks that have a focus on […]

hello hello.  feels good today as i’ve reached out to a local project to get involved.  i’ve been brave and spoken about my evolving practice – i’m currently investigating if indeed i practice in a transdisciplinary way.  i’ve linked this […]

I was unsure where my work was going or what it was meaning. I contacted my peers/people outside of uni to get some help. I was told to reflect on my work I had done from L5 to L6, to […]
