Thanks so much to Rosalind Davis for the warm welcome in her recent blog postings. I am delighted to be a new member of Cor Blimey Arts. We’re already busy at work and it is such a pleasure working with an energetic group of like-minded people. I’m especially excited right now because I’m going to be in London at the end of November for the PV of Relay at Core Gallery, November 26, which means I get the chance to meet some of my blog friends!
Relay is going to be a really great show. Cor Blimey Artists are exploring their curatorial skills by inviting one guest artist each to exhibit. There will be over forty artists exhibiting in pairs exploring a vast array of topics. Go to the Core Gallery site for more info: www.coregallery.co.uk
I invited Annabel Tilley to be my guest artist. Our collaborative wall installation is entitled Extreme Narrative. We explore interrupted identity through a pairing of her ’64 almost-identical drawings of Josef Fritzl blindfolded’ and my ‘6 obliterations’.
A chill runs down my spine when I contemplate the meaning of my work when placed next to hers. Context, context, context.

The frontiers of isolation have just shifted – hooray!!
