Faces



I've been working on this sculpture this week, it's now in the drying process and the head sunk further down when hollowing as the clay wasn't really dry enough yet for the process. The photo was a freak accident when playing with my camera but it fits pretty nicely. x

Exhibition at School of Ideas





My first exhibition in London was at the School of Ideas, a squat occupied by the movement Occupy. It was vibrant and wonderful, we got to put our work up in the gym. No-one turned up for the first 5 hours but once the music started people were turning up and we had a good atmosphere. The building got demolished 2 weeks after we exhibited in it, illegally, before any planning permission had been granted to the company who bought the land to build flats.

Thus far.


Thus far, she needs a head, the fire ball in her hand to be more firey, sort out the top bit a bit more and a general tidy up. It's based on the idea of balance.

Today






I worked from home... meaning in a tiny room. I really enjoyed it, got quite a bit done, I'm not putting it all on here because some of it is pretty ugly... and bought myself a decent amount of procion mx powder as well which made the day really good. x

Finally.

Sorry it's taken so long, it's only just become more of an idea.
... i don't always work in the dark.
And i am capable of straight photographs.
And i know arms don't really look like that.
ok, enough.

Rounding up

Pipilotti Rist was an amazing exhibition at the art gallery, all I can really show you are the pants on washing lines all around the building. Inside was a giant, beautiful chandelier of them as well as an abundance of interesting and interactive ways of showing video art.
This here is Trigger of Only Fools and Horses, he read us poetry be people such as William Blake in the UBS Bank of Ideas in London with the Occupy movement.

And now here are a few pictures of the development of a few of my pieces. Making slow progress, need to pick my feet up.





And my grubby bed, it has now been replaced by a clean cover and will be washed upon my return to it.

A beautiful year, mainly in Foundation, but a good start to life in the city too. I haven't quite gotten used too it yet but I'm going to be working hard when I get back, have an exhibition to prepare for! That should help me get more into the swing of things again :) xxx

We count.


It doesn't matter, only you do.
Keep buying into this
Easily bought ideal reality
And you'll have no sanctuary
When the world burns
At your feat.
