Start of a new week and feel l may be geting some where, filmed myself in my normal every day life and realise how l manage.

Its amazing how you take things for granted in your every day existance untill you start to analyse it.

Been thinking how my degree show should be contructed and feel that less is more so will try and keep it simple.

    hi amanda.

    i've come here to add a comment as i have been unable to comment on you artists talking blog.

    today you have added an image that caught my eye, the wheelchair on the stair. it caught my eye because it's not often to see a wheelchair in a work or a wheelchair on a stair.

    it reminded me of moataz nasr. i met him through his work the echo. i programmed the video control system for it at a couple of exhibitions. moataz is from egpyt and there's something very subtly edgy about what he does. i recalled a work he had made with wheelchairs...here's a link

    i also took in your 'baby me' video on your blog. i grew up in ipswich. the boating lake images reminded me of falling in the very large boating lake near the pier in felixstowe. is it still there ?

    also, i've not seen what moataz has done lately, his website seems to have been left alone for sometime now.

    i found this link to a recent exhibition:

Think this maybe why l call my abstract art ‘Shadows’ its how l feel about dad, shadows of memories of time with him, although he was not an absent farther like my daughters dad, he was emotionally absent in my life. The unintentional connection with chairs l have found within my practice, why l am drawn to them, l have spent my whole life sitting on chairs either for an appointment at hospital or sitting out of something l could not do because my stump was hurting or maybe because l was deemed unable to do whatever sport or activity was on at time. Remember mum saying ‘go look down the sides of dads ch...
