reflecting this morning about the final session of a royal academy / artists rooms funded project at derby museums has placed me in a reflective space about the post i made last night. firstly i reflect that when tired i […]
on my mind of late has been my practice – i’m close to beginning the commission from the museum of making at derby silk mill. it is refreshing to be moving towards doing more within my practice. my practice is […]
as a boy the film oliver had a huge impact upon me – especially fagin played by ron moody. i would spend hours doing the actions with my hands – i was told this when i was older. as we […]
there’s a hub bub of activity in the kitchen as pizza friday is in full swing – i’m waiting for the crowd to ebb before venturing in. i feel in a very reflective mood tonight as earlier we all were […]
something from earlier i forgot to include, formal qualities. i think i missed the lecture or the memo that told me or taught me about the formal qualities. i think i need some help understanding the formal qualities. maybe just […]
i begin writing while dinner preparation is happening in the kitchen. i’ve been treated to an eclectic selection all with the low drone of the cooker hob extraction fan. as i write i hear the inspirational voice of freddie mercury […]
i have to admit to you i’m really uncomfortable about something i wrote about myself in my previous post. i did consider sitting with it all day and writing later. this was going to be too long before trying to […]
is a biscuit better dunked ? i only ask as i had a biscuit and now i don’t. surprisingly this opening line resonates with my ongoing enquiry into the energy of feeling, so much of what i do is in […]
we’ve delivered daughter #1 back to college today and now we’re home its all a bit flat and sad. i covered my sad thoughts with mindfulness and concentrating on the driving. thoughts did wander back to a conversation this morning […]
i spend alot of time looking out the window while i sit and compose my posts. for the most part the posts are reflective about the last few days or maybe the week. this morning as i prepare to go […]
I am working hard to build my website at www.chriswright.co.uk. A bit a day will keep the temper at bay! However, it is getting there though probably will never really finish it. In the meantime, just found out that […]
funny how writing a title triggers a memory of dragons den – not the start of the post i anticipated so i’ll work to bring it back on track. amazing day today – from hoovering to going through the contents […]
bish bosh bash – work, housework and a reprogamme for the snee snaw ( fore fingers ). yes i’m not one to sit around too much ! with the snee snaw i did try to adapt the isadora sketch as […]
feeling incredibly optimistic and positive i start this blog. there’s been quite a turnaround from a week ago, it took some heartfelt conversations and bravery from me. i’m bolstered by getting a wireless sensor working last night before settling into […]
blog plotting my practice, life and work during 2019.
there was a time when charlie brooker presented a review of the year through all the bits of broadcast tv he’d found most weird/annoying/out there somewhere. liking brooker’s writing style meant watching this review was always entertaining and a chance […]
it took a few days for my state of mind to unwind after wednesday and i’m really pleased to report that after a conversation yesterday i’m feeling a lot more centred and happy than the previous few days prior to […]
thank goodness for the break. i’m returning to thinking about things i’ve not had space to consider and the first of these has been the about me on my website. i took the decision to have an about me section […]
it feels so decadent writing during daylight hours. though windows both behind and in front of me the crisp warm sunshine of the day illuminates the static drawings on the horizon created by resting trees. space to think ! […]
a comfy place on the sofa avails thought and contemplation to recount recent days and specifically to reflect upon aspects of my own practice. last weekend i made my debut with the skin and bone trio in a local pub’s […]
New blog focused around interviews with practitioners from various art and design backgrounds.
sitting at our dining table i find myself staring out the window at a scene of slowly fading light with becoming brighter moon. what leaves are left on the trees wave at me like they are all vying for my […]
i can remember sitting in a well dressing meeting some years ago while the search for a new chair person took place. the wise one at the table suggested “if you want something doing, ask a busy person.” during the […]
scary – worked all day at derby museum and it’s been so good i’m blogging before i’ve eaten. i’ve lead a gif and meme session. put into the public programming after the artist rooms tate bursary pilot programme associated with […]
there is something very satisfying about getting to mid afternoon on a friday and logging into my a-n account to prepare a blog post. for one it means that i’ve got to the end of the week and managed to […]
