As I consider my 40 year career most of which purposefully staying out of the limelight because of the nature of socially engaged art practice. Having worked with the most vulnerable in society people with multiple challenges and issues where the imperative has been that the participation in processes of making art are parampount. Circumstances that demand people become empowered themselves, gain confidence to share their work and gain insights into themselves and others. There is no room for ego and now it is ironic for me to be wearing high visability, but I hope without too much ego.
I collaboratyed with David Caddy to produce a joint performance/presentation piece last night. The video is now available please also see the ‘Enemies’ site below. It has been a challenging and very enjoyable process a copy of the visual image backdrop can be accessed from the rehearsals blog.
Here is a collective photo call for the 7th August event at Hauser and Wirth
