And then, one day, I had a tutor mentioning me to have a look at FLUXUS… and my world just opened up and new ideas came rushing in and flew out, running after each other, and dancing in the rain in the middle of a street in a cacophony of music and sounds and deafening silence: I found a way which justified and validated my Self. I didn’t feel poor man’s Matilde anymore, misunderstood and mocked for her ideas, but I felt invested and complete. My first thoughts were to find t

On Sat 22 and Sun 23 September, I have tagged along “others” for the Lancashire Encounter Festival. But it was way more than that. Jamie Holman, (artist, writer, and lecturer at Blackburn University and College) has been co-commissioned a piece titled Live the Dream with Fabrications, British Textile Biennial and Super Slow Way: a beautiful banner representing disused mills, past and present, acid house, JOY and HOPE. On Sat the performance piece was executed twice within the

magnify!

Today we worked with different sizes and understanding hence different medium and thickness of marks. Also, for me, was the emotional impact of working on a larger piece of paper: would it make a difference? So, I chose to work with a magnifier, and I decided I would use one of the drawings I did of glass and see what came out of it once I magnify it. I used acetate to draw it and I found the process somewhat calming. Then, I noticed that the queue to the magnifier was quite

[Ξ] my voice

How do I become what I want to become? Am I confident enough to say what I want to be? Eventually, one day, should I decide to go to Uni, would anyone of them take up the challenge to teach me? Understanding who I am as an artist, deciphering my own Manifesto, writing up and living my own Agenda, letting it come up from within my own sense of congruency and integrity, is not as easy as I would have thought. Still, I gave it a go, bearing in mind that this is a work-in-progres

I so enjoyed this session! We spent two hours just playing, really playing, and still, I have learned so so so much! Following you will be able to see some sketches we did while trying various techniques, including: drawing with eyes closed experimenting with different sizes drawing in continuous line experimenting using the non-dominant hand experimenting holding the pen / pencil right at the very top, etc I would have never thought that using simple techniques such as those

I know I am at college to learn techniques, skills, methodologies, and theory. Still, when I can let go of all the paraphernalia surrounding art and all the talking and all the conditioning, [Me] as in the Real Me is allowed to come out and play. At that point, I know that the lessons learned *in my other profession* surface, and then I can really allow [Me] to simply be. I have shown the one following to various people, from different walks of life, and most of them understo
