COMPLETED SERIES OF PRINTS
Green did not work and I went back to brown. Had to work on an unfamiliar table and the 'snap' was all wrong. After a time of things going wrong, I began to get a rhythm again and completed the series of 'allotment sewings'.
BACK AT THE UNIVERSITY RESIDENCY
Today I went back to finish my prints for the Residency at the University of Brighton. Did a complete screen from start to finish. Cleaning off, coating, exposing, washing out, drying, onto the screen table, printing each of the stitches onto the vegetable names I printed in February, washed the screen off.
These sowings/sewings are in black and brown. Tomorrow I hope to do another screen using green on black.
Jiggered.
TALK ABOUT THE WORK
We had a meeting to start planning our talk for Talk About the Work at Claremont Studios, Hastings later in April.
We will focus on our collaborative partnership in Breaking Ground and see if we can widen our understanding of the way we work together/alongside and take this forwards into Stage 2 of the project. We will invite the audience to collaborate with us for the evening and open a conversation about the work and the partnership and artistic collaboration.
We have had a break while concentrating on other projects and it will be interesting to see where we stand in relation to the allotment and taking the work indoors to develop in Project Rooms.
It is sunny today and I will go to the allotment and take an April picture for this blog.
