More mark-making since the twelfth of July, when I last added images of a watercolour in-progress. I have a few days to paint before another garden project and will show the development process shortly… I've always felt slightly bored at […]

It's been an exhausting, happy, worrying and rewarding few days in that order. The workshops at the Lightbox were tiring but really worked well and Monday was good in the end. There have been such a mix of different things […]

September seemed to fragment into a myriad of shattered and interrupted pieces of time. Family life, broken down cars and washing machines pushed in on all sides. Somehow I managed to wade through and complete the pieces of work I […]

A view of the tin can from the side. To prove that it really is flat.

Weird sense of excitement and relief. I’ve started work covering a fellow artist’s research sabbatical. I’m just waiting for Human Resources to make me a formal offer for the fixed term contract, other than that it’s all going well. Well, […]

Someone's response emailed to me. They wish to remain anonymous. "I looked at your blog and the Fabrica site about Hirschhorn.It must be difficult to keep an objective position on this work.Quite honestly I think his work is such butch […]

OPENING UP THE EMPTY SPACE.. Last night was the Gala opening… I think we all experienced moments of intense vulnerability –an awareness of people hovering on the edge of the space, interested and intrigued but unsure of their place in […]

RACHAEL ELWELL From single intuitive hand movements to rigorous systems employed to mark a paper surface, Rachael challenges the act of mark making. Her work focuses on chance, which is faced against elements of control and structure. When one faces […]

SARAH HARDACRE Sarah Hardacre’s work explores the construction of knowledge and the institutional shaping of history and the natural world. Her particular interests lie in the appearance of a ‘Natural History’ and the evolution of the museum. Sarah graduated BA […]

Blog block A lot has happened over the past couple of days. I have done my first two residency sessions in the gallery talking to visitors about the Thomas Hirschhorn exhibition. I need to digest it all a bit before […]

Now in Germany: small production residency in a small town in the countryside not too far from Mainz.. Made a second hay ball, filming next saturday.. Why on earth I am writing about this in telegram style when telegrams no […]

The Postcard Project exhibition is back….only until the 10 October now (sorry for the late posting) but it looks lovely at the Durber Gallery at the North Wales School of Art & Design in Regent Street, Wrexham. The new 08/09 […]

Nothing to report. Starting to feel self conscious about having nothing whatsoever to say about anything. just busy and tired.

My videos have been well received, especially in the UK. In France the Memorial Commission are interested in a screening in the camp, but it is difficult to pin them down to a date. The most recent project in which […]

It seems this uncertainty of mine was short-lived. As I have experienced the last couple of years my art and the feelings that surround it take a constant 'tumble-drying'. Ideas often soak my mind and the confidence I have in […]
