What I am finding interesting about collecting drawings for Floc is that when I ask people in the art world (whatever that actually means) to contribute a drawing of a bird it is met with some hesitation. Not sure why that is! When I ask people to contribute who come from all sorts of backgrounds and experiences I seem to have a much more positive response. A real willingness to be part of it. My recent addition of drawings for Floc has been sent to me from prisoners in HMP Coldingley. They are such great drawings, infact all the drawings I have received are great. Each one is unique, each one I imagine to be a little self portrait of that individual. Each drawing expressing something about its originator. As this is part of my MA at Aberystwyth I hope to have gathered a large enough Floc for my exhibition in May. The Floc will then be hosted at other venues. Some suggestions for that would be great!
