I have been enjoying the sun! Trip to Margate to take my work to Crate for Come As You Go – preview tomorrow from 6-8pm. And while I was there got my feet wet taking the dog to the beach, while I still can (before the 1 May cut-off date).
“Come As You Go is an exhibition about the use of space and materials inspired by geographical and temporal displacement. it is not about start or end points; it is simply about knowing, about being aware and continuously observing. Each artist shares their own insight about the experience of being in flux with maerials and surroundings. …” (Aine Belton)
Am quite focused on my work at the moment and also on learning to make videos. Here is another attempt: it is quite different from the first one, which maybe I prefer though they are both about something different.
In this video the viewer sees the artist trying to get the work to stand.
Went to Strange Cargo in Folkestone yesterday evening to see “This Me of Mine” curated by Jane Boyer. The artists’ talk with the curator at the beginning was a good way of getting into the work – felt a bit like a crit! Fellow a-n bloggers were there and exhibiting. Was good to meet some in person.
I’ve made a short video of my “collapsing sculpture.”
Very pleased, my collapsing grids are going to be included in “Come As You Go” at Crate in Margate curated by Áine Belton. Preview is 26th April, from 6-8pm and the show is open on 27 April from 12-5pm.
I had a little play in the studio yesterday with folding the paper and making a temporary 30-second sculpture.
