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 ?

a quick follow up to my previous comment.
ReplyDeletei understand now that the wheelchair on the stair was from 2006 by another artist. sorry for any confusion i set up 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:
