I’ve been really busy since getting back from Exeter. DAD has three projects on the go which is great. We are having to streamline our processes! In other words run more effective meetings, introduce the idea of project teams and assign days to DAD rather than do DAD stuff on a whim so to speak.
Went to the Central St Martins MA degree show private view and got a teeny bit scared! The final degree show work looked very polished and I can only hope mine does too in a year’s time.
Through my Dada South connections, I decided to go to the Liberty festival in Trafalgar square yesterday to take a look. On Friday, together with fellow advisers, I’d been at a Dada South training and visioning day where one of our tasks had been to present our journey as artist adviser over the past two years. I did a mind map which was an attempt to, presentationally at least, link up all the different strands of my activities as an artist and I ended by showing them to be aspects of an integrated practice. A total fiction really but it felt quite good pretending.
Will be back in the studio next week and the idea is also to get back to thinking about my research paper in which I aim aim to examine how autobiography is brought to an experience of art, both as artist and as viewer.
