Still writing. It’s strange but having read through lots of theory vs practice huffing and puffing on various a-n blog pages I am now realising how a really close engagement with theory is actually really exciting. I mean close engagement as in trying to read a few lines really carefully as opposed to trying to catch at all the bits of theory that come one’s way. My own subjective reading of artworks is coming together with the theoretical in a way I hadn’t expected and it is impacting on how I think about my practice.

On we go! Have done about 6,000 words now. I’m not sure if I can submit this year as I’m not officially enrolled but if I can get the writing done, then next year I can just hone my practice. CSM doesn’t give separate marks for the research paper and the final work, so it’s just about practicalities in terms of time really as to whether I submit in May or not.

On with the research paper then. Lacan and the gaze.

In the meantime have been busy in between periods of grogginess. DAD has set up a temporary ‘story shop’ in an empty venue in Dover where we will be collecting stories from people connected with Buckland paper mill which used to make Conqueror paper in Dover.
