20th - 28th - I've been helping with setting up the new show at Plymouth Art Centre, "Proximatey Effect."
Along with helping with the usual installation processes such as 'making good' I have been helping the collaborative artists Hannah Jones and Rachel Dobbs, aka "Low Profile" , Who have generated a vast selection of emergency situations and displayed them as post-it notes on two graphs of concentric circles. The central circle contains the worst type of emergency and the level of emergency decreases as the diagram spreads outwards. Emergencies incude:
A bird flying into your face, All the bees dying, Stung buy a jelly fish, trapped in sinking sand and your whole family dying at once. Along side this the artists will spend 18 hours watching the 80's TV show 'Mac Gyver' and will document ways the lead character escapes various hazardous situations and methods of 'saving the day.' The information compiled will go towards building an alternative guide to responding to the many eventualities life can throw at us.
NEW Update to Projects Pages....( Go to U:1 Studios Projects page )
8th - (6pm till late): As it is the 2nd Saturday we will be putting on an exhibition at U:1 Studios. There will be work from other atists aswell as the three resident artists. I will be displaying some of my degree show work and conducting a live drawing which will encourage participation from our guests.

3rd - I moved into a nice little studio space today, I found it through a colleague at Plymouth Arts Centre. It's a good size space at U:1 Studios in Plymouth. The three others I share with seem to be quite active in putting on monthly exhibitions. I'm looking forward to making some work again and mixing with people in the local art scene.
