I’m back! well that was a while out of circulation, too many funerals and not enough fun, but enough of that. The phrase ‘you couldn’t write it’ comes to mind, perhaps a good title for some work based on incredulous events or something; but, well really that really is quite enough about my personal life.
I have been doing less than usuall and had to let many events and opportunitiies pass. But I have been working, and mostly recently documenting project work ready to upload to my website. This I will finish within the next week or two, if nothing else comes along to disrupt things.
Other than that I have had many very interesting discussions with an artist called Stephanie Smart via emails. She contacted me after seeing my Tracing The Everyday prints on my this blog. Asking to incorperate one of the designs I made, into her next piece of work, we discussed how the image would function in the new work and finally I agreed. I was not reuctant as such, but wanted to find out how it would integrate and what its purpose would be. Stephanie has used light in the piece, which is a new venture for her , I believe, and works well. An image of her work is included here showing how my image is transformed and reworked into her new piece.
We discussed perhaps collaborating together at some point, though I guess to some extent there was some dialogue that might be such a thing, but really I just sanctioned the use of the image and she made the work. I do hope we collaborate at some point, as it would be a challenge to me to work quite differently.
The exhibition of the work will be from 21 november to 8 december at The Muse, London, hope I can make it to see the real thing. Stephanies website is www.stephaniesmart.net and her blog is www.a-n.co.uk/p/2879067/
