PICKING UP THE THREADS
Looking back at my last post I realise I left off rather abruptly, so perhaps the best thing to do is to sum up by saying that the show went up, seemed to be well received, and a good time was had by all. I then rushed back to my MA to throw myself whole-heartedly into my last few weeks and focus on my final show at Wimbledon.
Months have gone by and I’ve settled down into my post-Quay Arts, post-MA routine, working at home in my studio, on new projects which are exciting and unsettling (nothing new there then).
The desire to re-start my blog has come about for a variety of very different reasons. I find it’s a great way to reflect on my work – selecting photographs to show, writing about the work, making contextual links, and, at times, getting very welcome responses to the posts. But also, I’ve recently started a blog about the new artists’ network I’m setting up in partnership with Towner with the support of a NAN Futurific! bursary and I’m (rather oddly) feeling the need to reinforce my identity as artist first and foremost and arts organiser second.
