Another Thursday, another theory session with Tom. Today, we talked about Non-places and Age of Access. Non places, by Marc Auge, is about the difference between places and non places. Non-places refers to spaces that have no “relational, historical and concerned with identity”. Examples of non-places are fields, empty buildings and a empty room. A […]Read Post ›
No meeting today (thank goodness), but I still had tutorials with Andrea and I had to bring my finished collage and present it to the group. For the morning, I did some paintings on my walls, and inside one of my cereal boxes. My aim is to use my used food packaging and cereal boxes […]Read Post ›
I continued my paintings today, using a leaflet and a performance review card from Leon’s as canvases. So far, my new series of paintings are coming along very well. Soon, I will move on to cereal boxes and one of my walls. I also painted an image of a video nasty DVD cover. This was […]Read Post ›

I went second, and talked about the artist research I did for the practice. The other talked about the venues, each artists we used for our exhibitions, the promotion […]Read Post ›

Once she came, the others hung the pictures onto the rails, […]Read Post ›

The rails finally arrived, and we had to out them together. It was tough, but too difficult. The Polaroid was supposed […]Read Post ›

With the help of Kate and Bex, I made 4 additional performance videos in one of the TV rooms in the university. We had to make sure everything was just right, from the lighting to my positioning and check if the music was loud enough. In the end, I was very successful with my performance […]Read Post ›
First thing I did this morning was continue my painting, which is progressing more and more each day. Later on, I left the studio to find and choose a church for one of our four venues, with Kate by my side. The first church I went to was the St Baptist Church, which was the […]Read Post ›
