I began this blog at the beginning of 2010 as a kind of thinkdump for the process of being an artist and how it differs radically from my intentions, how domestic reality constantly interferes with the creative. In writing this blog I am trying to embrace these interstitial episodes as being the creative.

Endgame (1957)

Nell: Nothing is funnier than unhappiness.
Nagg: Oh?
Nell: Yes, yes, it's the most comical thing in the world. And we laugh, we laugh, with a will, in the beginning. But it's always the same thing. Yes, it's like the funny story we have heard too often, we still find it funny, but we don't laugh any more.

July and not such a failure

I've been busy.
I feel that I have shed my dependence on working only within a particular framework that is acceptable to the criteria set by my art degree and MA and declared statement which I think I have found very restricting. This emergence has not let to any miraculous output of work but I am happy with what I am making: I will have a small solo slot at the beginning of next year in a local space, I have been invited to review an exhibition, I am not totally invisible. I continue to apply for jobs.
