archifest 2009 - Slough

Artist in residence at Slough Museum as part of Archifest 2009.  I worked with the local community and local artists to create an installation that explored people's relationship with the architecture of Slough, past, present and future.  See photo albums for further images
 
 

art apprentices

I have just set up a new experimental venture with a young artist that we are calling 'art apprentices'.  The idea came from a young friend of mine who needed a professional artist to work with as part of her art awards, to make work and share it with others.  As a fan of blog sites I suggested that we communicate all aspects of our project as a conceptual art piece to make a joint piece of work from instructions that we give to each other.  The blog will be used to coach and mentor each other as artists and to share our journey with other young people and mature artists who might be able to learn or share with us.
