It’s been almost 4 weeks since my last post. Not sure what happened. The last workshop I delivered (see previous post) left a bad taste in my mouth and I haven’t been able to revisit it by writing a new post, I think. Specially since I’ve been putting off writing about delivering workshops in schools…
Anyway, I vowed that from next week, I’m back to working on my practice full time.
I’m teaching one day a week (except for school holidays), taking on any freelance projects that come my way and for the last 6 eeks, moving into a new home. Painting, clearing out, unpacking. I’d had no time for my art practice – unvariably the first thing to suffer – but now I’m back. At least all the painting did inspire a new short text which you can see here:
I hope to carry on exploring this kind of “uncreative writing” from next week.
Also, I’ve been asked to write a short piece for Axisweb on the politicisation of community-based arts practice. I don’t have to hand it in until August, but I’m hoping this blog will serve as some kind of empirical research.
