Video Resizing Issues, but you get the point.

TG Interview

Little rays of sunshine

After being an art hermit for about 3 months I just had two great weekends in a row with friends I don't see nearly enough. And for some unbeknown reason, after going to bed late and waking at 6am, I feel remarkably awake. I liken this to what it must be like to be on crack (the good bit when your life isn't in tatters). I even took out all the recycling and enough empty glass bottles to make the resident crackheads look down on me for seeming a ridiculous alcoholic. It seems sleep disorders are not all doom and gloom!

On one hand

While I know it will all be worth it in the end, I have currently bitten off more than I can chew and the motivational wolf demands I simply chew it. On the other, I have left myself little time to do anything. Like attend this privateview:

It makes me very sad and all the wolfy inclination in the world cannot alter my dampened state. Perhaps I can flog something to fund a trip after I miraculously complete all the arduous tasks that await me. But there will be no free wine.

Halloween's Health & Safety Horror

As much as it pains me to admit this, my most treasured Halloween festivities were whittled down to watching a couple of crap movies and recieving a lazy grope on the sofa after a tiring journey back from London town.

The closest to scary things got was the Sarah Lucas exhibition in Sadie Cole's borrowed Dover Street site, with its wonderful, daunting sense of 'work in progress'/'I'll bet this is part of the concept'. While I feel an absolute prude, let me elaborate. Wires hanging left, right and centre; rooms with no lighting; stairways with no hand-rails, the place is a real death trap! And I felt myself sighing with the realisation that I had been suckered into the sanitized show-home mentality of modern day life.

Oh Lucas, you are so clever, with your stuffed hosiery sculptures in all their sexually ambigious glory. I don't care what anybody says.

Music Video

For the purpose of learning how to attach video's, here's a tune from the last bjork album. The video was directed by Michel Ocelot. Apologies about the youtube quality. 'Volta', 2007.

About

I get mixed reviews: 'Simultaneously the most self conscious yet dexterous person I ever met'; 'Small, ratty sort of person'; 'Bug eyed'; 'Mental'; 'Evil, using slag'; 'Difficult'; 'Sweetheart' - Personally, I don't think I'm nearly this interesting, although the idea of being the female Jeff Goldblum excites me.

I'm student of Fine Art at Nottingham Trent University. This is generally a great place to study and be as it is full of interesting beards. Although based in the Midlands, I often frequent the North East, if only to enjoy the eloquent mannerisms and bargain take-aways of my birthplace.

My main objective in art/life is to not be so damn precious (harder than it sounds) and to laugh when the occasion calls for it. My primary interests are sex theory, drinking too much coffee and travel. This is all a little clichéd, but there you go. Sometimes I attempt to write reviews and things but I usually cringe a lot afterward. This one is fairly decent though.

Blog, art, attitude; will improve on pain of death.

Intro

This is a blog I knocked up in order to document things surrounding my time at university, the study of art and just life in general. I tend to forget lots so it should be good for keeping track but I'd also be interested in a little networking. Maybe this will grow into something useful like that.
