Room 212 + New Contemporaries





This Saturday I showed my apples in the window of Room 212, which is a tiny Art Gallery in Bishopston, on the Gloucester Road. Three in each window, close to the glass so that people could peer at them and wonder what they are. This great little place is usually brimming with paintings; i got a few funny looks. Here's my profile on the Room 212 website.



Today i was at Fairfields Art Gallery in Basingstoke setting up 'Sense' to show as part of the 'Young Contemporaries 2008' show. The circle or apples look a bit ridiculous to be honest. It's tiny! There is no impact. The original circle of the 1,200 will be included in the catalogue, so there will be a history shown.

Supertoys



I went to the Supertoys exhibition at Arnolfini for the second time this Friday with my family. There is a workshop where you can take apart old toys and make them into hybrid new ones. Amazing. Crab-Girl is mine and Dino-Scull is my nephew Ben's.
