6ix Souls -the end The water screen shows a roughly 13 minute long film on a continuous loop. Entitled Is Death Your Bitter End? it depicts the beginnings of bacterial life, sudden deaths by drowning, suicide, fire, and old age […]
So anyway – here’s the last post prior to the art being marked – but not the last post, as I’ll pop back to update on the actual degree show; it’d be daft not to. My project has evolved & […]
Well, here we are – nearing the end. I’ve just spent what has to be one of the better/more rewarding weeks at university, setting up my degree show in and around the Black Space. It’s been a joy to see […]
It’s (to me) a surprising amount of days since my last blog post. I’ve been very, very busy with art in the real world and have been ‘saving it all up’ ready to post about it. I’ve photo-documented my journey […]
