I was at a low point when I closed the studios in late 2018 (the main reason for drawing a line under the blog). However, 5 years on and I can look back with pride.
And true to my word HMS continues in another guise. Even without a physical space I have initiated other projects. This includes curating a booth at the artist-led art fair, Platforms Projects in Athens.
Last October I invited 4 artists/curators to curate a PLOT on the theme of ’Plot’. Rosalind Davis, Cynthia Harrison Orr, Fronteer/Sean Williams, Wendy Williams and myself each curated a space within the HMS booth. It involved 70 artists and gave those new to international art fairs a taste of what was possible for artists at every level of experience. We had a ball. It was wonderful to catch up with old friends, many I have known since I first took part in 2014.
Next October London artist, Bella Easton and myself will be having solo shows at Enia Gallery in Athens. Platforms Project will promote the shows so we should have a brilliant PV.
