Bank holiday over, back to routine and to the workload.
(For about 3 minutes I was just thinking about moaning here but I have decided to not do it and instead go straight to the point).
I have had to make something this morning for the group show we were having at 128 with some classmates. Getting in my studio was depressing really, I got a lot of stuff that I’m not sure I need or want to use for my degree show work. But what degree show work? I am not even sure what I’m going to do!? I have been suggested to put all my “characters”, “personas” in the gallery but I think I need to work on something better than that. I know my work has to have a scattological quality but I want to create something more durable, something that stays together if someone touches…
(I’m crumpy tonight)
The 46 packes of cloth are going back to B&Q. Not convinced.
This is what I have done to show today. A little thing made with cloth, wood, sponge and breastfeeding pads. A somehow funny and curious object I will say. I was thinking about my daughter today and how she is growing up and how much I love her., the breastfeeding pads reminded me of that nurturing.
I didn’t have any title.
I’m not sure if it works but I just had to make something.
I need to clear the room again, re arrange and think of more sturdy materials to build such as wood, plaster, zinc, I need to start again.
I have brought some materials from last year, some upholstery samples and I think seeing this in the studio brings me back to where I already have been. I need to clear and move on with new stuff.
Bye for now…
(I’m stressing out!)
