talkandthebooksculpture

A really positive day working at the Colchester Institute http://www.colchester.ac.uk/courses/ma-sculptural-practicewith the MA Sculpture students – morning was a presentation around public art http://www.slideshare.net/l.bicknell/working-with-in-public-art and the afternoon was individual tutorials – it all felt good talking sculpture – discussions ranged from the abject and Kiki Smith to the sublime and Mariele Neudecker via amongst others Bachelard, Jospeh Beuys, Pitt Rivers, ritual, symbolism, skill and witchcraft! Meanwhile the book structure workshop/session at Camberwell for the MA Book Arts students followed by a bookness – what is a book presentation http://www.slideshare.net/l.bicknell/what-is-book-bookness-2013 was really interesting with cultural hiccups left right and centre which is always an interesting thing to reflect on.....language...the digital invite to the show at NUA is out.
