punto della situazione

There seems no other way to describe where I am at than: punto della situazione. We are still in COVID, we still don’t know what is going to happen next, we all believe there is no going to be a final year exhibition, we are going to probably be graded by the work down up to isolation and so on and so forth. I have been making some stuff in Papier–mâché, I have been trying to create maps in different ways. I am not happy with what I made. I bought some more material because I

FMP update

Well, this in my original plans would have been the week to decide what to do and what to create for the FMP. We still don’t know what is going to happen re. college and the final exhibition, not to mention how we are going to be graded at the end of this multi-faceted year. Still, I am here trying to make it all work, as are my colleagues doing in their isolation. First, the sad notes: the book is stuck and left to how it was during the holidays and when I experienced the sy

self-isolation day 31

yap… over a month. My very first day was Friday 13th and today is Easter Monday. Last week has been hard. Emotionally and spiritually. I have a lot of questions re. the futility of this role of the artist while there are people out there who help others, who care, who are doctors, nurses, carers, ambulance drivers. Not artists. Still, I have tried to do my part, esp as a student. So I have: constantly updated my confessional podcast on here: https://open.spotify.com/show/5Nfl

tutorial /09 – PL ∫R

We all have doubts in our practice and to me, practice has become a way to self-enquiry. PL said that that could be seen in any of my pieces already, but it was I who did not see that. This blessed time of silence and repose and stillness gives me time to understand the reasons why I am doing what I am doing. Especially thinking that the whole idea of my FMP was about “DO YOU SEE ME”: so, now, in this lockdown, do you see me? How does it feel to be here, not seen, and not cre

self-isolation day 18

Do you know where the days have gone? Because I can’t remember. We all know what has happened in the world, so I am not going to describe this on here. I have been in self-isolation since Friday 13 March so today is my 18th day. I have been and still am in a strange rollercoaster journey, emotionally, and now I am trying to adapt to new rhythms. I know, all this sounds like the discovery of hot water! We are all feeling the same, we are all over the place, we are all stressed
