It seems the decision as to when I should leave this first section and move onto the second one has been made for me. I have an Open studios weekend coming up 1 – 3 October at my Euroart studio in Tottenham and I am going to install the work there this weekend. I need to get it out of the shed here anyway – although I have a great new wall in there (courtesy of my lovely husband) it is now nearly 2m wide and I can no longer photograph it in the house. The photo I have just put up is taken in the shed and I had to move to the side to get it. It’ll be good to see it in a different, larger space anyway.
I have had a bit of feedback on the work recently, a couple of friends (also artists) have visited. It was a relief to be able to talk to people about what I am doing – especially when the making process is an odd combination of being fractured and yet intense. Lovely to get a comment on this blog too. Thanks Claire.
Anyway – the result is I am feeling much more confident about the work and being ready for the Big Draw event at artsdepot on the 24th October. I’ll write more about that later…!
