Statement of Intent v1.0.2

I don’t have a studio, nor can i afford one. I don’t have space. I want to paint, but I have many barriers to that activity. Some self imposed, others imagined, some insurmountable.

I want to finish my MA; I want to move forward, but the barriers remain.

The drawings I make for practice and glitches I create scratch a creative itch but they rarely satisfy.

I made an image today. The image encapsulates what want to explore. Einsturzende Neubauten recorded a soundtrack to Faustmusik a play by Werner Schwab. The sound track was composed with the materials such as tables, pages, books, rulers and writing sounds . I need like Einstruzende Neubauten, to embrace the materals. I must use the mechanisms of writing. The forms and rituals.

Desk, pen, pencil, paper, A4 , words and line . These are my tools, my baoundaires. Established in view of my barriers and current limitations.

Out and about in sheffield

I've been out and about using  my eye holes and a camera to get some ideas for some new cityscapes. Here's what I've been looking at with my eyes.

Sheffield's Green Tardis. I don't  know why more people don't know about this.

I'm thinking of treating each image in a different way. I will also glitch the images. I find something satisfying about glitching images. Using code and software to bend data in ways it was never meant to be bent.
