Panda , I received from father Christmas at my dad's works Christmas Party. What joy!  He's awe bare in places & recently had to re-attach his nose, plus make him a dashing re-claimed wool collar, also to keep his neck from wobbling!  But he's just as loved. He is languishing on my families welsh blanket heir loom.

BELONG Installation preparations for Wakefield Artwalk 27th July 2016

  Studio:   new artist books & book art   for BELONG Installation at Westgate Chapel for Wakefield Artwalk on Wednesday 27th July 2016.   The book art is inspired by the 'Words Are Not Enough' collaboration I took part in earlier in the year. The audience were invited to take a boo/s away with them. I was instantly attracted to a book cover as it was a mirror image pictorial cover devoid of words. I loved it. And so it slowly evolved and transformed in my studio.   I have for as long as I can remember had an strong pull towards old, discarded things. Creatively I love the challenge of working with something a bit awkward, seeing the beauty.   The   military weapons belt I have had for many years, I thought it looked useful for when I was out sketching it could house my art materials... making peace not war!

Somme 100 1st July 20016

My Grandfather   stood on the right. I thought he was an old, old man. He was 22 when he fought at the Somme .  Unknown compatriot. Charred, blackened, decimated tree.     War.  ]WWI.   The above images are from Silent Witness, a seminal project which I began during Artist in Residence 2012.  From a young I have been intrigued by the photograph of my Grandfather. Being given little information about him. All I understood was that that he fought in the First World War, which as a small child seemed such a long time ago.  His face in the photograph has carried with me through my life.  My grandfather died when I was a few months old. Being mustard gassed in WW1 contributed to his death.       Somme 100 My Grandfather was a TA. My grandfather fought with the DLI. My grandfather was gassed. My grandfather was a stretcher bearer. My grandfather was buried alive for three days. My grandfather was saved by Canadian Troops. My grandfathe

Liverpool Biannale 2016 Shakespeare Now!

    Shakespeare Sonnet   Artist Book Re-claimed wool yarn hand knitted & felted, original watercolour on handmade paper, text. I love the visual language of repeating text over & over allowing it to form its own rhythm whilst becoming abstract in meaning. Shakespeare Sonnet   From you I have been absent in the spring                                                                    When proud-pied April, dressed all in his trim Hath put a spirit of youth in everything The heavy Saturn laughed and leaped with him, Yet not the lays of birds nor the sweet smell Of different flowers in odour or in hue Could make me any summer’s story tell Or from their proud lap pluck them where they grew Nor did I wonder at the lily’s white Nor praise the deep vermillion in the rose; They were but sweet, but figures of delight Drawn after you, you pattern of all those.         Yet seemed winter still, and, you away,

This original meaning is now largely unknown, and the word has come to mean of inferior quality, shabby or broken down. This is the starting point for an exhibition by disabled artists working with woollen or other yarns and fabrics, or recycled and reused textile materials. We are challenging ideas that disabled people are second-rate. Instead, we thin

Words Are Not Enough Performance 30th April 2016 Leeds Cental Library

Remnants of a Performance:  Words Are Not Enough               Quotes from the audience:    The use of books bound for destruction was great, they provoked more emotion, thought and discussion than they could have sitting on a shelf or in a shredder. Thanks.   Enjoyable stimulating performance in a wonderful space-the journey from door to performance room felt part of the scene.   Fun and enchanting world, created from the library performed in the heart of the library, humanizing the book.
