Been really busy lately… these are a selection of new things I have in the pipeline. I'm really interested in developing some photographic work but as yet it will need to do just that…develop.
I'm working on a number of things in tandem that evolve around this idea of protection, memory, home, safety. The work is semi biographical and I intend there to be an element of duality. I'm as interested in people's response as to my intention. There are a lot of ideas relating to Fairy Tales and the telling of stories. This is something I have been developing for some time now and I'm hoping that this exhibition in Wrexham will have someting of that magical quality about it. The title of the exhibition hopefully has that feel about it. I do sometimes lie awake listening to my i-pod which has birdsong on it. I do sometimes wake early in the morning and hear a lone blackbird searching for the day to come. It's not normal to hear birds at night unless it is an owl, or a night jar, these don't ordinarily sing happily, they are more associated with an eeriness.
I'm waiting to hear about a funding application to develop a book…should hear any day. I want there to be an element of narrative and past times, mementos.
