This project is now well under way, I have got the canvas stretched and the first coat of primer is on. I am also now exhausted from two hard days graft.
The images continue to come in although now I am trying to make it clear that I am looking for any input to this project. It is, or has become, a dialogue about painting, painting on a large scale, so as well as images I am looking for any input; comment, text or suggestions. I would be happy to consider how I would work with say a poet or a performer.
Now that I have got the wall covered in canvas some basic issues have become more immediate concerns. The sheer size of the bloody thing for one. I'm exhausted. As I think I have mentioned before the length and shape of the surface suggest certainly a formal narrative arising as well as possibly a literal narrative, especially if I use the various very different images people have submitted.
Also considering the narrative, where do I start? The left hand side?
