My lovely camera has gone funny. I jinxed it. Last night I sat and distinctly thought – that camera the ACE grant paid for has been the most valuable contribution to my career (I’m going to change that word to practice – mmm) I’ve ever had, I actually said the words in my head and bang! – just as I’d formulated the thought, the camera buggered up.
Anyhow, got a nice email from an arts organisation in Oxford wanting to show my work in ‘Invasion of Privacy’, an art event taking over a terraced house in late October, so now I’m heading to Oxford to give the space the once over. A succession of sickly children has thwarted all plans recently but fingers crossed, they’re all back at school tomorrow and I’ll get there to check it out.
Met up with a friend this morning to focus our plans for taking over an exciting space in Salisbury next year to put on an exhibition and succession of events. Next Monday we are due to meet up with two pivotal town council people and we need to get the overall vision nailed down. I’m not going to jinx this one by mentioning the space before we’ve secured it but it has loads of potential, – next Monday, we should know more.
