Alternative Press Fair This Sunday

It's that time of year again, I'll be there with my friends, Dr Parsons and Sean Duffield. In my humble opinion this is the most fun fair, I'm looking forward to it and hope to see you there.

Solipsistic Pop Three I Tells Yeh!

 My work has the honour of being included in the latest issue of Solipsistic Pop!

The book was launched last Friday at the Black Heart in Camden, and editor Tom Humberstone will be at Thought Bubble this weekend, if you're in the Leeds area be sure to pop by and say hi. I hear that lots of good stuff will be there, including the We Are Words and Pictures peeps, and Steve Tilotson and his Banal Pig, to name but a few.

Here's the link for the festival, www.thoughtbubblefestival.com.

And here's a detail from my contribution:

Here's to Dale

My website has been given a very kind write up by the lovely Dale Berning over at Bunt. 


Go check it out, it's a blog full to bursting with interesting links and well written observations and thoughts, as well as lots of kicking music and pictures. 


And here's a link to Dale's website, the online repository for her beautiful work:

From Brighton to Marrakech and Back Again

Salome.

I've just got back from a residency in Marrakech. It was great fun. I met some really lovely folk and worked like a camel in the Western Sahara.

The residency was organized by the highly hospitable, generous and incredibly hard working Amy Smyth-Said and Saad-Eddine Said over at Terre Sans Frontiere (http://www.terresansfrontiere.org/).

I was working alongside a group of international artists and musicians in a communal residence and studio space. Over the course of seven or eight days we worked together to create a group show at the Remp'Art Gallery and a musical extravaganza at the Theatre Royal.

I can safely say that the group of people I found myself amongst are some of the nicest I've ever met, so although I missed my family terribly whilst there, I am compensated by the fact that I have made many new friends.

The exhibition we made is on until the 4th October, if you find yourself in Marrakech feel free to go and check it out.
















Here's a pic of the space on the private view night and a drawing from the piece I submitted.
