deep dark drone



walking through the last remaining landscape to see the sole of your feet... soundtrack to wonder over could have been composed by john barry... no fears piano shifts through a deep dark drone with lifting strings on the other end... the splinters through you, the sound that goes away... panoramic shifts... too a jingle jangle morning, crying in to floating crisis moments movements in the deep dark drone.... moving on and up into the heals, past efforts of glorious shame...

A New Year

The New Year has begun... will be making applications for exhibition opportunities... the second leg of the Symbiosis project Natures Glory Fancy's Child will be taking place in which I will be photographing the studio sessions...

New ideas for a project are stirring in the brain... anyone no where I can find and buy some astro turf...?

Other projects ... collaborations are being talked about and one of these has been started at end of last year...

I dropped out of the Project Y project at the end of last year.... doesn't seem anything new has gone on their site of late... perhaps its not happening... My reasons were time clashes with some London excursions I had to make...

more news to follow when and where it happens....
