Hi fellow a-n members, I have created a workshop for creatives and freelancers about getting their work online, protecting their intellectual property, standing out through the noise, safeguarding and increasing their visibility. I’ve had some great feedback and thought I […]

Can anyone tell me how to submit work for Turn the Page Artist’s Book Fair please?
Continuing the exhibition of Susan Plover’s ‘A Feast for Your Eyes’ and taking some candid shots of the goings on in the gallery space. The Instagram account reached 50 followers on the same night as formation dancing practice in the […]
Reflecting on how this gallery space has affected my practice after a week. I’ve seen other artists from studio spaces within Phoenix, but due to social distancing, we’ve had no collaborative chats in the studio space. This has reinforced the […]
BA (Hons) Fine Art, University of Dundee, Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art and Design. “While the main themes throughout my practice are predominantly about experimentation and freedom of expression there is also a depiction between human and non-human identities […]

I have been interested in experimenting with gelatine bioplastic to make simple stitched clothing to reference invisibility/unseen unidentified deaths – but also decay and decomposition and the circle back to the earth/land/water. I’m interested in the trace elements that remain […]

Thank goodness for the internet! I’ve so missed the conversations in my studio with my fellow General Office colleagues and friends. I’ve missed the prodding at my brain that makes me continue to question. Especially at the moment as I […]
Susan Plover can be seen at www.susanplover.com The Tiny Cat Gallery is at https://www.instagram.com/tiny.cat.gallery/ and of course there was a straggler
I’m setting up the Tiny Cat Gallery for the preview of ‘A Feast for Your Eyes’ tonight. The artist wanted a draped background and an ornate frame. The best I could do was a nip to Wilkos and some distressing […]
Unusual gallery space staffed by small plastic cats.
Engaging with the unfamiliar space. Creating in the unfamiliar space. Noticing the different lighting system & the shadows it creates. Noticing the different traffic sounds from my home studio. Hearing strangers chatting in other studio spaces. Variety of people passing […]
Using the temporary space alters my practice as I interact with the unfamiliar studio. I’ve discovered existing holes in the walls and used them as supports to suspend objects. The resulting cast shadows have taken my work in directions I […]
