Exploring this issue that underlies much of my work and I wondered about the instruction of how to deal with loss – funny how we subscribe to a set of instructions to ensure we are grieving adequately! So – is it 5 or 7 stages? Five = denial, anger, bargaining, depression, acceptance Seven = shock/disbelief, […]
I was interested in Seebach’s use of line within a space to create sculptural forms of negative spaces – her works are akin to drawing in space steel & ceramic components made in relation to the human form – negative space occupies a large part of each sculpture ‘in-between state’ each sculpture conjures an amplified […]
Reading for workshop on Tuesday 6th February. We will look at some proposed differences between ‘curating’ and ‘the curatorial’ as discussed by Beatrice von Bismarck and Irit Rogoff in Cultures of the Curatorial. They ask what are the different claims made for the exhibition as a space of experimentation, critique, rhetoric or mediation? How do these […]

I have started to looking at Isabel Nuno Del Buen as I am interested in the way she uses line and drawing with object within a space. I had been looking at Georges Perec in his descriptions and uses for a domestic space and was considering using his observations and findings of how one uses […]
