Thursday will see the opening of the exhibition I have put together with Susan Massey at Wolstenholme Projects in Liverpool. We have done it all on a shoestring (kindly provided by WP) but it's looking good and I'm excited to […]

exhibition text continued… "We live a companionable life; myself, the chair, the chair, the little red table; the dining-table, the window, the waste-paper basket; the horrible curtains and the houses across the street. We conduct no conversation, but our silence […]

Hi, I thought I would update folk on how the planning for the Re-place exhibition is coming along. The summer is upon us and September is looming nearer. We are liasing with Birmingham City Council's Arts Team to link in […]

Its been six years but am finally getting close. We have less than 2 weeks to go. There are only 5 of us graduating this year so will be a nice intimate show. I am working on the theme of […]

Well I managed to finally post that blog, first experience of doing this. Am in the process of practising hanging my work in the communal hallway of our building. Hope nobody nicks it while its out there. Just waiting for […]

“Dad! Turn the music down! I’m trying to get to sleep!”. I’m lying on the sofa clutching a bottle of red wine, with Pink Floyd’s “One of these days I’m going to tear you into little pieces” playing LOUD … […]

Well it's all done! It's been assessed and will be on show at Kingston University until friday 12th. Can't say if it was a success on the opening, it seemed busy and people seemed happy. Think we're too close to […]

The aftermath of the performance (well, one of the dress rehearsals for the degree show performance that is) ends in a week long installation of the detritus and works of sculptural/assemblage art created during the performance… UPDATE (since writing Post […]

The trials and tribulations of pre-degree show life. The catalogues that we had so carefully designed and then had printed were wrong – we had missed one person out- couldn't be much more disasterous. Know we had everyone in at […]

I think today marks definite progress – call me shallow but there was something very nice about having professional art handlers collect my work this afternoon. It was my first time. In the past I’ve driven, posted, carried and lugged […]

it rained at the weekend. it would have been good if it had done it before. the zinc tis not shiny no more. it has a puddle which is v.good but the dullness and the silt washed from the surroundings […]

Walking Home is an idea, a dream if you will, what I am interested in is how dreams or concepts exist in reality. Does the dream fall apart for the viewer or the artist if the artist fails to walk […]

I've just hit a button and lost the long piece of navel gazing I had just concocted to put on the blog. Probably a blessing and I no longer have the interest in my self-interest to re write it. However, […]

(8th June continued) I had a tutorial with Louise Wilson when both she and Jane gave a talk through the visiting lecturers programme at uni recently. The main issue that came out from this, is to have a much clearer […]

Given the events last night's European elections, the admittance of two BNP candidates and the feeling of a general swing to the far right across Europe (at least in terms of those elected), today I've been thinking more about if […]

Time has moved on so quickly in the past two months and as I write this entry, the project is in a state of flux as we wait patiently for the outcome of the funding application to the Arts Council. […]

Today is MUCH better! I feel almost optimistic despite there being a lot still to do in my space. However, the screen is up and mostly covered in tape. The projection looks brilliant with all the reflections it throws back […]

Wow! We had over 2000 applications so thank you to everyone who put in an idea. We've been having a great time reading through them and now it's over to the artists and producers on the panels to read their […]
