in the daylight i finally managed to see the 'wrapped container' which was created as part of the corn exchange commission as a solution to the changed layout of the site. it’s interesting how dark and menacing it looks as a physical object off the screen and placed in the ‘real world’.

growing stone

on a cold and rainy day i travelled to Colchester to deliver the final print to the new residents of Distillery Pond and was pleased to see the stones are settling in well

the work for Distillery Pond is over with the posting of a leaflet to the people who i have been working with and have been so generous with their memories. the form of the leaflet references the shape of the buildings that used to be on the site and the text is edited from that which is cut into the stone.

a day on the MA Book Art at camberwell workshopping the new students - looking at structure as content and manipulation as narrative the day also explored visual sequence and text generation - whole book philosophy.

fullday

a day at Camberwell saw the what can a book be? seminar leading to a session in the wonderful Chelsea Book Art Collection. it is an exceptional collection of artists books. after a walk through soho and the tottenham court road area i got a train home to view the portacabin covering at the corn exchange - really pleased - it looked dark and menacing, especially at night. i will return to photograph it in the light

hi mum

so tell me about your work.

a sunny afternoon saw the culmination of the commission at Distillery Pond celebrated with a drumming band, speeches and a play. the stones were unveiled by some of the children who live in the space while older past residents looked on - a good ending
