White collar black man , 2014, 40 x 40 cm, chine-collé, V.E. 30
The new year has started as the old one ended, with bits and pieces.
I have been concocting an altered book Displaced for the Wiener Book Art Competition and finished a plate the Booksellers daughter for Absence & Presence, a print maker’s response to the Al Mutanabi street bombing. Presently it looks like it that the Booksellers daughter is going to be a series of prints. Perhaps because I am one myself?
A selection of the variable edition of my series Child soldiers and White collar black man will be on show with Julian Page Fine Art at the forthcoming Works on Paper Art Fair in London.
Meanwhile my book Travel with me for the Sketchbook project will be part of the pop up library at the Wythe Hotel in Williamsburg. For those who cannot, like myself, visit this event a link is enclosed.
Next month the UmUm ’14 film festival will show Postcard from the edge, an artist portrait made by Thomas Völker in response to last year’s show Walking the line. This film can also be seen at both of my forthcoming solo shows.
The first one, Open Secrets will be in at Millennium Gallery in St Ives end April/May.
Later in the year I will have my second solo show with De Queeste Art in Belgium.
