Meetings and Research

We haven't blogged for a little while, mostly because the work that is involved in preparing the exhibition; marketing, installation needs, liaison etc is so exhausting and demands so much of our time. The good news is that we received the grant from the Arts Council, so more things are now possible.

I am now at the point where "State of Readiness" is my only project and i can concentrate all of my creative thoughts fully on making this work - its been a long time coming.

I originally said that i would do a performance, but following the Crit with Caroline a few weeks ago, i have decided that this work is best articulated through a video piece. Yesterday i visited an air-base, i have identified this place as the backdrop to my film, and was looking for specific spots that i can use. The air-base suits a lot of my needs, by having subtle military references, it is plain and sparse, open and flat. When i have a free day, either a Saturday or Sunday, hopefully soon, i will head back to make my film.

Here are some photographs from my visit:
