thank you very much Krzysztof Kieslowski






I feel a better person after watching this truelly magical film.

just before she left ......



I had a little informal meeting with the external assesor , well....um ...um...it was a bit ..well, how was it for you ?
A pure let down, useful only in so far as I had to get the work to its best ,its a lonely , lonely road.

between two worlds

fragmentary drawings are go !






Had a great day at college yesterday. I have only got 12 weeks left ,um, I actually feel fine about that , wouldn't want to get institutionalized or anything ! Studying for a degree over 6 years has been amazing. A real priviledge, to be able to learn in a way that is part of your whole life. It has introduced an increased awareness and vigilance that has become part of my practice as an artist
As I have become stronger as an artist, weirdly enough, my work has become more fragile, in its form. I know that it is an ongoing process , but, the more work that I see, it makes me want to say less and less and less..... resonance and meanderings are my work, um is there anybody out there ?
