Writing this blog has gradually become quite an important part of my practice, so much so that it feels strange when I don't post an entry on a regular basis. The Inishlacken Project has entered a quiet phase and there is no news relating to it that I can post for the moment. All of which leaves me with withdrawal symptoms and the question of whether I should carry on regardless of subject here on this blog or think about starting a parallel one that is more general. If there IS anybody out there who has a view on this please email….[email protected].
Last night I held a mad artists tea party as part of the NAN ReVIEW bursary that I received a few months ago. Rebecca Weaver offered the Town Hall Gallery in Ipswich as a venue and it provided the perfect setting for a slightly kitch arrangement of objects and food and drink on a large table. Artists from Suffolk listened to a presentation by Sue Jones (curator of the Whitstable Biennial) and then engaged in general discussion with each other and Sue. Lots of sweet sticky cakes were eaten and copius amounts of tea were drunk.
People seemed to enjoy themselves. Was it useful? I spotted lots of addresses being swopped, so maybe it was…
