I have spent a lot of the past week tidying and sorting over 2 Terra bytes of images, trying to get all my digital work onto one hard drive, this has taken an age to go through and get rid of duplicates and put it all into coherent folders. The work goes back to 1999, so I didn't have a file/folder naming system like I do now! Bits all over the place, but now it's very nearly done, with 447,896 files all nicely organised, including this one from circa 2001. 35mm slide film.

First stage, copies of the junk mail on black and white acetates and on a light box (at Peterborough)

turns out I've got three or four weeks off Uni, and not much in the diary, so I thought I'd keep myself busy  using the time to create and share some new work, alongside bits in progress and possibly some oldies, so pop back over the next few days and see what's happening.... First of all I think I'm going to start sometihng with this junk mail that came through the letter box today..

Day 4 setting up for the Interim show, Have changed my original proposal and I am now transforming this column into an art piece, made a start yesterday, finishing up this morning. Preview opens 6pm tonight at the Mangle in Hackney. (at Wringer + Mangle)
