I’m back to drawing and making which feels like the best thing since sliced bread and I can officially say that I am finished with the catalogue (fingers crossed).
I’m unsure of my latest piece, but I do know that I’ve left enough excess paper. At the moment the drawing is definitely not laying where it should be on the wall, due to the fact that I’m working at home. I can’t work in the studios while they’re being made for the degree show so I have to turn my bedroom into a studio. Which is difficult when the walls are not smooth.
I stand corrected, as I speak I get a phone call about the catalogue. It never ends! I just want to do my own work!
I’ve just been sorting out and looking at my documentation for the past university year. I find it unbeliveable that I could have made things and then almost forgotten about them.
The finish line is close but I don’t feel it.
I don’t sprint towards it.
I look back every second.
It has been so fast.
Yet so slow.
Today was utter chaos. That is the only way I can describe it.
The catalogue is now fully designed and in a way finished. So you would think that I can put it behind me and go full throttle towards my degree show piece. However, the people who were in charge of finding the printers forgot to tell us a few details. Therefore, I have had to spend the day changing the formats of the pages and it now turns out that the files are still wrong. I’m so tired.
Fortunately, a good friend had offered to make the final changes tomorrow so it can get sent off to get printed.
Tomorrow I am going to do everything I planned to do today. I need to make and organise.
I’m trying to fool myself into thinking that two weeks is a long time, perhaps it is if I plan it right. At least I got my dissertation back today, one high part of an otherwise low day.
I’m really annoyed at myself for not doing much work this weekend. I have been finalising the catalogue by doing the back cover which was a job I shouldn’t have accepted. However my mind has been most preoccupied with finding a title for my work.
…
I’ve sent the email, I now have my title. It better be right because I can’t change it now. I’m more confident in it than I have been with anything else. IT is ambiguous enough and gives a certain something. I might tell you it later.
