I was thinking about how art goers perceive art works in the traditional "white cube" situation. I want to explore alternative places and how this may enhance or change the meaning of the art piece. to be more specific i was thinking abut my work and the piece I'm working on at the moment. I'm working with the female form and vintage underwear (the hold all lumps and bumps in kind) and thought i would be interesting to take the prints out into the urban setting. by hanging my prints out on washing lines the piece wouldn't necessarily be seen by the gallery goer. watch this space...

I've been thinking of accessible alternative venues/audiences to exhibit art work, when a mate invited me to a drawing session round his. Where else is more accessible than your front room? It's brilliant covering surfaces with paper, bringing in old doors, vegetables and then piling in the art materials. It's a collaboration, with pen's at the ready everyone drawing from one another (no pun intended!) And its interesting to observe as the night moves forward where the drawing takes people, even more so with the bevy's kicking in! What i like most of all is seeing all the blank canvases at the beginning of the night and there is no way of knowing what is going to become of them....
