16.08.11 - Hotshoe show!
Set -up is taken over by the London riots! Being, effectively in a white box all day I hadn't heard the news of the extent of the riots. Got completely trapped.
The show was a success and I finished in the final minute- my text piece was a complete nightmare! As I've been collecting my wedding dresses online- I’d been asking the women why they are selling them? For the show I created a text installation, which was all the responses put into a tagcloud.
It was great to work with Hotshoe and Tri-pod and my piece received some nice reviews, such as British Journal of photography and Culture 24. Photofusion also approached me for a solo show early next year. This is great news as exhibiting in publicly funded galleries is a high priority for me.
A couple of other interesting meetings, HERE press want to publish the work in a small-bespoke book and Jasmine Reggina from Foto-festivals has asked to show my Married Man series at the Paraty Em Foco Photo festival in Brazil in September.
Off to Los Angeles for the rest of August - part work, part pleasure.
