Today I introduced some drawings to the RISOGRAPH- Which is almost describable as a screen printing photocopying machine. Here are some experiments, all of which will be for sale at STREETFEST on the 30/05/2010 at a stall which I will have the honor of sharing with some of my beautiful peers from Camberwell College of Art including the stunning prints of James Cartwright, Cressida Knapp, Natalie Kay-Thatcher and Rosie Chamberlain. Also SOULMIGHTY (Who's own designs and those by artists they admire adorn t-shirts, hand printed in their little workshop at home) and prints by the wonderful Suzannah Pettigrew of OVER IT AND CO.

Ill bring some more 'Pending in the Intermediate Lake' books, etchings, giclees and all my left over RISO prints will be bound in a book.

Considering the space at the Arthur and Albert Studio is so large, it seemed like a good way to try project the 'Probability Theory' animation, programmed by Adam Chappell. The drawings were deliberately hung opposite the designated projection area in moveable frames so they could slide up off their hooks and be re-arranged in a countdown-fashion to certify how they connect up with each other. Photocopied versions of these pictures was also available on a table for people to interact with. 'Probability Theory' was my chosen topic to illustrate from the  FACT project. The exhibition was also an opportunity to allow interaction with this piece, which is important in supporting my intentions of demonstrating the blurred lines between causality and randomness.

At the back of the space, in a small make shift room, were some old pieces from my show in August 'A Vague Inventory of Ailments and States' next to the Windmill Brae painting and the final clue painting from the book called 'PENDING'. Many, many, many fundamentally indispensable thanks and praise to Su Pettigrew, Charlotte Hanlon (of OVER IT & CO) who did all the organising, planning, drink getting and flyer making. The same thanks applies to Arthur & Albert's Zoniel Burton and Danny (surname?) who so wisely designed the layout of the exhibition AND of course to Alex Miller for handling the hanging of all the work so swiftly and efficiently.

One of the paintings that will feature in the exhibition TOMORROW and in the book. It seems as though there will be two versions of this book; one for distribution TOMORROW and another one that will be over twice the (paper) size of that small wee one and hand bound with thread and bound with blood. It has been an exhausting but satisfying fortnight.

This is the best I can do to show some recent progress. I think after 4 years the time has come to invest in some kind of compact digital camera. 

I HAVE AN EXHIBITION ON THE 4TH FEBRUARY! It is with consideration to the terms of distribution of my publication 'Pending in the Intermediate Lake'

Come and visit for viewing of  seen and unseen works of recent times including the screening of animation of 'Probability Theory', some prints, drawings and paintings from my publication of PENDING IN THE INTERMEDIATE LAKE, an almost vaguely cryptic picture book in which you are encouraged to solve and decipher site specific puzzles and interpret their solutions into a sentence which will lead you to some encased treat either buried, sunken, suspended or in some other way concealed. The book is available for purchase and order.

Below is a flyer created by the lovely creatures of OVER IT& CO and The Arthur and Albert Gallery.
