My photographer friend John (with whom I recently submitted the first piece of Murdoch-McCormick collaborative work, ‘Creps’ for the Harts Lane gallery open call) spent some time with me in my studio at the end of last week, helping examine, select and photograph the various music boxes that I had taken out of storage. I hadn’t actually had a really close look at them for ages and was pleasantly surprised that I have at least five intact, with working ballerinas. This will be sufficient for my proposed plans for the short film I’m creating with Henrietta (Thomas) and it was good to establish which were still in working order, in advance of film making which starts this coming Friday.
John has now sent through the images he took. There are some very special ones amidst them and I feel so lucky to have been introduced to such a great photographer via another mutual friend. John is very generous with his creative work and is happy for me to use as many as I like of the photos he took; I’m very grateful to him for this and include a couple of my favourites here.
