Yay!

Just to let you know I have come into some luck while on my work placement at' The Press'. I told them what I was planning to do for my outside the white cube (with the red tube of fabric) and they said that they might make a story out of it for the newspaper. Will keep you posted as to what happens :)

Mapping me!


After looking into Chris Drury I found out that he uses echocardiograms in some of his work. I thought this was very interesting as I had an echocardiogram a few years ago. I like the idea of mapping the body in this way. I have included here a picture from my echocardiogram, if you look carefully you can just see the different areas of my heart. This is in a way a personal map of a part of me. Instead of mapping on a conventional chart where things can be seen by the naked eye, this type of mapping looks into places that we cannot see without certain types of technology. A personal map of my heart!

Just Wondering.....

Hey guys, just wondering if anyone knows of any artists (other than obvious ones) who use either natural pattern, nature or firearms in their work. Any information would be much appreciated!
Thank you!

Richard Long


I am looking into the work of Richard Long, simply because he is an artist that I have always admired, yet not had the chance to look into in detail. I like the way that he takes predetermined walks through the countryside and makes works as he goes along. These works are always made from natural materials. This is something close to my own heart as I try to use and take reference from nature as much as possible for my own work.
I like the way that he incorporates natural form in sometimes unnatural patterns, for example perfectly straight lines.
I am going to look in more detail at Richard Long’s work for my ‘Outside The White Cube’ project.
I have included here an image of Long’s piece entitled ‘Tame Buzzard Line’.
