Now it really starts – we have been allocated our spaces for the degree show so now I know exactly what I’m dealing with.
On the down side my work will be in two separate places – not ideal for the sort of multilayered installation I’m working on which gains so much from the rhythms and rhymes set up between the different elements.
On the plus side I have oodles of space to show including a great blacked out space for projection so I can’t complain. It’s up to me to make the work function in the spaces I have.
There are three elements to the work at the moment: a video triptych, a series of photographs of my childhood home, and a set of traditional, victorian-style drypoint prints all based around the idea of dwell.
I don’t have any print images yet, I’ll begin cataloguing them this coming week and the video is still at the editing stage too, but here are some digital photographs to give a flavour. I have just been re-shooting them using Fujifilm Velvia filmstock with the intention of showing them via an old carousel slide projector.
