10×10 opening and new project.

The opening of the “10×10” show in the White Room Gallery was on last night. The turn out was great and I really enjoyed it! The fact that we sold a lot of work made it even better! Thanks to everyone who came to the opening and thanks to Anna who curated the show and the rest of the White Room crowd. And well done to the other 9 artists who participated!

However, if you didn’t make it to the opening, remember that the show will be on until the beginning of January, so feel free to pop down to the White Room in Liosban to have a look. There are still works left for sale and at €100 a piece it is really quite a bargain!

Two days ago I also had a meeting with Maeve, curator at the Galway Arts Centre, about a group show that she’s curating that I am going to take part in. It is dealing with feelings of depersonalisation and issues with the perception of the ‘self’ resulting in out of body experiences, the seeing of doubles, phantom limbs etc. The material I’ve been going through so far is very interesting and I am currently planning a video piece, to be shot mainly in Sweden when I’m there over Christmas.

The show will tour to a town in upstate New York in March before being shown in the Galway Arts Centre at the beginning of the summer. Very exciting indeed!

So far I’ve done quite a bit of reading as well as collecting ideas and research material.

That’s all for now. Hope you have a lovely weekend!
