at last ! we get to achieve something we wanted to do. five paintings into an empty shop. a simple objective on paper. in reality a lot harder than i would have imagined. chris has worked really hard and it’s a credit to her that this first realisation of an intention to display work in an empty shop has happened.
and i have to say that i feel alice keel’s work is spot on for our first realisation.
the documentation of the work in situ is challenging because of the nature of the behind glass ness of the process. for me the documentation allows for playful intervention with the surrounding environment.
i’m also getting to play with maintaining a website. i foresee the site evolving as a piece of work in itself. we’ve gone it alone in terms of web creation, using a host package to make and upload the pages.
we have a facebook page also. if you have a facebook account please add us as a friend so you can keep up to date with our event intentions. both the website and facebook now have the first pictures of alice kell’s work in the cornmarket in derby.
