First day of residency at Harrington Mill and it has been so productive. Not saying it has been brilliant work but work has been made. What a residency is about I think. Only had one idea in mind before I started but found a roll of narrow foam material in the road. Experimented at stretching it from one end of the space to another until it broke, then started again until it was all used up. I was left with ribbons and tags hanging from the wall. It was good just to play and see what happened. Then set up an installation from something I had forgotten about. Did an installation Grass is Greener (on the other side) for the exhibition Inside at Blank Media in Manchester a few year ago and went out with my camera in between setting up. This was re-interpreted in the exhibition space as a film. So roll on day two at the Harrington Artist’ Playgroup!
