Hi Pam and everyone The website is looking great and it’s great to have it up and running. Well, I thought I had better send an update on what is happening here. We have had three exhibitions in Elliston, Jamestown […]
My record of everyone at the grand ceremonial opening, for the archive. Another photo taken later in the night when the Cosy had taken up residence. The pillar box is in the city centre, it was Saturday night. Brighton gets […]
Organisation and Co-Ordination. I am part of the crew of the Cor Blimey Artists helping organise our open studios exhibition, Fraction. 4-6th December. I think there are about 25 of us and I have been collecting info for a press […]
A few shots of recent work by Lewis…
I had a really interesting lecture from Tavs Jorgenson about 2 weeks ago. He’s a research fellow at Falmouth and is involved with autonomatic research there. I was really fascinated by the digital drawings that he had done by using […]
Hide and seek, jammy computer, Billy Goats Gruff, and bleary eyed – I have just returned my toddler grandaughter to her mum. She has been here for a fun few days after an emergency took her parents over the border […]
Excerpts from my ‘Stock Exchange’ notes and thoughts; I write a blog, an activity which has significantly raised the profile of ‘audience’ in my mind – people contact me with responses to my posts, or treat me with avaricious delight […]
A Free Lunch. I arranged to go and see this mosaic again and meet the arts development officer for lunch. I wanted to take photos of the mosaic in a finished context. When I got to the mosaic there were […]
The collaborative images with Alison Craig are part of the Le Cheile project. There is a Le Cheile blog that describes the project in more detail. The Le Cheile blog of 17 November describes the collaboration between Alison and myself. […]
I do love those “epiphany” moments.
I really have to get myself packed and off to Yorkshire, but it’s been a week of 200 miles a day in the car and I can’t be bothered! I’ve had a good week though, with high school kids for […]
There seems to be a point where images just emerge and create themselve.
Pitching session went well. Feel quite good about it.
I found last night’s “Where is Modern Art Now?”, on the BBC, heartening. Gus Casely-Hayford (GC-H) explored the position of the current art scene during the recession and post YBA celebrity bling. He asked: ‘Where do you go when being […]
This image is of Rue de Sebastopol in paris. I dumped someone elses objects and watched as people took things from the pile. Agnes Varda in her film The Gleaners and I documents the french tradition of gleaning. In wine […]
These are more subtle than the forest one. They didn’t work as stark images so I put a layer of green over them to make them look more subdued.They are really hard to photograph as the light bounces off the […]
Another studio visit looms. Monika Bobinska and her intern Adam are planning to come to Suffolk to see my work. Apparently I am to be in a show called ‘Cosmic Mysteries’ in Valencia and at the London Art Fair. This […]
7.45am stagger out of bed, harass children into getting washed dressed etc 8.45am in junior school doing reading session with daughters class 9.15 on the road, to the studio, pick up milk and tea bags 9.45 frantic scouring out mouldy […]
I started this blog only a few weeks ago. Seems like another life. Sitting behind a gallery desk, getting my bike stolen, and watching people fall ill. Struggling, hoping and living in a bedsit. Today’s NFASP conference, at the Toynbee […]
23.32 Just about to turn off the computer and end the day. I need to wind down double fast – to get 8 hours sleep I need to be asleep an hour ago…
