The Bridge In Rhonda. In Spain. To see the bridge. Insane. Huge, huge bridge. Grand. Over a tiny river. Having a coffee outside my little Arabic café. In the square. The tiny square in front of the huge church. A baby Hunchback of Notre Dame Church. In Calle Del Espiritu Santo. My styish...

I've taught 12-words umpteen times so I know it works. 8-stations has always proved trickier. So tricky I've never given it a true shot. The 8' x 8' paper on HOME gallery's floor makes it easy. When I say what does a mixed-race sink look like what is the first object you think of? They write it...

I feel a diary post coming on. Monday 01.09.25 It's Elly's turn again. We've each had our first day, our individual day.

Playlist Last night I was gonna call this week’s blog I’M A GODDAMN FUCKING HERO. It’s one thing doing your playlist and dancing into the night. You bust new moves. You have space on your kitchen floor. Your reflection in your kitchen window. Nobody is watching you. So you add a bit of...

1. To Curate or Not to Curate So, as you do, we are having a curator. Then the curator isn’t working out. We seem to be seeing things from different angles. Some strategic moves are made. First by curator. Then me. Then producer. It’s dead simple really. HOME want to see their press release a...

I am a firm believer in The Secret. It changed my life. Even though I am artistically successful up until 2014, I don’t know whether I am coming or going. I feel venomous about the arts business. My heart is broken. I have therapy for the first time in my life.  2014. Hayley at number 1 gives...
