Fields and mountains
        all taken by snow;
      nothing remains

ACHAAN CHAH (Buddhist Monk)

The tree has its own pace
Your job is to dig a hole, water and fertilize it,
and protect it from insects,
But the way the tree grows is up to the tree….

Iris Bouwmeester shows that nothing ought to be fixed for the artist.
That the intrinsic doubt that is inherent to an artist should serve as the basis for taking action.
This is a vulnerable attitude, but also the only way in which the artist can approach a core, an originality in a human being. Iris Bouwmeester’s artistry shows that in all its fibres.

Today I visited Hauser and Wirth on Saville raw to see some sculptures made by Thomas Houseago. Size really matter in his work, I especially liked his reliefs. Exhibition closing on the 27th October.

Here is my website:

I just wanted to say thank you to all of you that came to visit Candid art this week end.  And for those that could not make it, here is the display for my 2 metres space.

                                            Come see my work alongside other amazing artists.

I have been busy making some work for the exhibition at the Islington contemporary art fair. I made a series of hand made coils for the wall. Rest together. These are unfired,  to see them finished,  you would have to come see the show at Candid art trust.

 
I brought some of my work there this afternoon, and it is sooo big it is going to be buzzing. Hope The Ceramics Camberwell will meet lots of new people.

These crafting works by the famous artist Patrick Dougherty was absolutely eye-catching, he calls it “stickwork ”.  Crafting human-sized nest houses made by actually weaving growing trees into the shapes of houses, cocoons, pagodas, huts, giant water pitchers and even people.

This is a great picture of Jim Turner and me discussing his extruder and pug mill. If I ever go to the Cork region, I'll definitely go and check out his studio. (His work is mostly extruded) http://www.rossmorepottery.com.  Picture by Frances (Thank you).

Well, the Camberwell final degree show is over, the Ceramic course is now closed (1902-2012).
We had quite an overwhelming  time with many visitors, an amazing experience.



...here are some shots of my work at the show.















I wish I had pictures to show how busy it was, but  I was too busy chatting...
