Having a break from thinking about the bigger picture, as the deadline for Salthouse 09 looms.
This is one of the very few opportunities to show in a prestigious contemporary mixed show in Norfolk and I suspect there'll be hundreds of hopeful applicants. The theme is 'salt', which suits me OK as there's plenty of mileage in medieval church salt-scattering so I can propose something that fits well within my existing practice and the things that are occupying my thoughts at the moment.
The exhibition takes place in Salthouse's medieval church, which poses its own set of frustrations but does have an obvious resonance with what I've been doing for Festial. Add to that the Bronze Age barrow cemetery up on Salthouse Heath above the church (where Trevor and I first met) and I'm in heaven. Well, sort of.
After much procrastinating I've finished the proposal itself, and am now digging around for images. This of course fits in well with my digging around for images for this blog. So I'll post a few new ones from Ex Voto now.
