My work is coming together for the residency at g39 in September. I am currently working on sounds that I recorded on my trip to London to meet a couple of Russian ladies regarding selling my work. I was fortunate to take a break at St Pauls Cathedral on my way back to Liverpool Street, where the choir were in full voice for Evensong, so I took advantage and recorded the prayers as well. I am not a religious person and so my recordings are to be converted into some kind of conversation that I am working on with Gimp from the Imperial Leather series.
My work for g39 has been building for a while now with the Imaginary story of Imperial Leather. A number of incidents have occurred that force these characters lives to cross over in curious ways. The story has just started. i have no idea as to how it will end.
In the last few days, I have started to draw influences that Gimp has found significant in his life. I have also today made new images of the kind of things he may have had on his walls as a child. The story behind Gimp and his associates is ongoing and I add to his diaries most days in order for me to understand his and their personalities more.
Tonight, I am gathering up a few of his possessions and will be recording these objects in a number of ways.
