I've been away for a while working on a project with Eddie Ladd, which was completed in February and premiered at the Linbury Studio, ROH2, Covent Garden. This came after a number of exciting equipment malfunctions, and the replacement of one piece of equipment less than 30 minutes before the opening night's performance. Eddie seemed happy with the results and the show did get a positive review, so it can't have been too bad.
Since then, my critical faculties have turned to jelly, so no reviews even though I have been seeing quite a lot of art. I have been struggling to refamiliarise myself with my practice: I made a short new video piece for the MA fundraiser club night at the DQ Bar in a couple of weeks, and I'm developing new work for an exhibition in Amsterdam later in the year, but my main focus is on moving house and preparing to begin a new job at the moment. Brush up your CVs, Glamorgan will be advertising for a L/SL in New Media very soon.
I've also begun the migration of the blog over to 'new' blogger, which means I have to completely rebuild my template. As a distraction from this drudgery, I've added my last.fm recently played list for your perusal, giving you a whole new way of judging me as a human.
Finally, short word about Jon Warren, who passed away last week. We worked together on a number of projects during my time at Newport, including my first ever public exhibition at Tredegar House. We also shared a house for a couple of years during that time. Although we had fallen out of touch a little in recent years, he played an important role in that part of my life, and made an impact on my development as an artist and as a person. He will be greatly missed.
More later, when the worst is over.
