Stephanie Douet is in her studio working long days at the moment, finishing several sculptural works for a deadline in a few weeks time for Sinopticon. She’s been researching chinoiserie and making the work for what must be 2 years now. The sculptures will be taken to Plymouth’s Saltram House, a National Trust venue, but the Sinopticon show (curated by Eliza Gluckman) is also at Plymouth Arts Centre, Plymouth City Museum and Gallery and Plymouth College of Art & Design. www.sinopticon.org
Here is a rather lovely polaroid I took of the artist pretending to be at work. I’ll take her a piece of cake to stoke up the sugar levels when I go in tomorrow morning to start my five day residency in the Project Space.
