I feel amazingly priviledged to be able to just devote weeks to making work, to being given such generous access to the cathedral, to being welcomed by all kinds of individuals along the way. I feel enormously lucky.
The work itself is in progress, but I am much happier now. I put up the projector stands and projection screen stands as well as 3 of 5 projectors this evening and will need to go back in at 7am tomorrow to continue getting it all up and running…
How it could have incured somewhere in the region of £2.500 in costs, I am not totally sure. Although I paid for some labour and the cot of materials and equipment is high.. Higher than one thinks, even when working out a budget in advance..
To have the screen stands made came to almost £300 and you would fall off your chair if you saw them. They are made wonderfully well, but they are not a big presence in the space, an amateur may assume that they are worth £20… An amateur, mind you wouldn’t have a clue… The stands really are well made. But £300 is such a sum of money out of an unfunded wallet…
I am still nervous about promoting the show. I need a spokes person.. Any eloquent volunteers..? So from tomorrow you can come and view my latest nugget of achievement..
The Anglican Cathedral Liverpool opening times are:
from about 8am – 6pm daily.
The exhibition will be open from Monday 14th of May until Monday 4th of June…
So come, come, come.. And then please invite me to funded projects. Residencies, commissions, let Phaidon know that I am ready for their call….
