This week's news.... my interview/proposal for an aa2a placement has been successful! I will start on Oct 30th at Buckinghamshire New University, to learn new skills and create new works using the metal and textile workshops.
Just heard that Billow has been accepted for The London Group 85th Open in November. Been an ambition of mine for a long time to show with this prestigious group est. in 1913 by by thirty two artists including Walter Sickert, Jacob Epstein, Wyndham Lewis, David Bomberg, and Henri Gaudier Brzeska.
Admission free - Copeland Gallery, Copeland Park, 133, Rye Lane, SE15 4ST
Friday 10 Nov - Sunday 26 Nov 2023 11am to 5pm daily with late opening on Thursday and Friday until 7pm.
Private View Thursday 9 November, 6pm – 9pm.
Delighted my new work Unfolding Shadows is included in this show:
Downstairs At The Department Store 248 Ferndale Rd, Brixton SW9 8FR 20 -29 October.
It will be a rich curation with many perspectives on Home.
All The Frequencies is going to be screened at the Academy Galleries, Academy of Fine Arts, Wellington New Zealand as part of “Amplify” from 6 June.
Working collaboratively in performance sound and film with Libby Worth over the past 20 yrs on place-responsive projects always stretches me into new performative areas of making - but mostly bring me the joy of communicating with someone through a beautiful process of segue and navigation that simply unfolds until we arrive. This is a rare & wonderful thing❤️.
Special thanks to curators Kate Enters & Jen Wiggle at Artcanorg & advisors @evelyn_art_factory & Heather Britton @callunacallunacalluna for facilitating this fabulous opportunity.
Custard Splits, SETealing gallery, 105-113 Broadway West Ealing W13 9BE 25 May - 4 June 2023 Wed -Sun 12-5pm
Artists: Julie Brixey-Williams | Jo Chate | Sarah Dwyer |Cait Luke-Kelly
At the moment when Custard Splits, clotted solids coalesce into new forms and liberated liquid spills more readily into the cracks, creating an imaginative swivel in syntax. Intelligibility is subsequently paused to create an ‘adjacent possible’: a term used by theoretical biologist Kauffman to describe a state of untapped potential, that exists via porous points of possibility. Featuring a range of scales and materials, Custard Splits collages these leaky moments into a playful dialogue of unravelling fantasy & reality, inviting us to grope in the gaps to recalibrate our own connections with the world.

Alongside some really beautiful artist responses, I'm so pleased my little gesture/photograph will be included in My Body In My Hands - an exhibition of over 100 artists' responses to #mybodyinmyhands with works encompassing bodily experience and accompanying texts.
John St Gallery, Stroud, GL5 2HA May 5-13
open Wednesdays to Saturdays 10.30am - 5pm.
Opening May 5th 5 - 8pm
May 11th 6.30 - 8pm Q&A with curator artists Nick Grellier & Sam Lucas when a fundraising raffle will be drawn.
Driving my practice is a need to find that delicate yet dynamic balance between our sensing bodies and the objects/environments around us. This “moment” of tender balanced care of fragile parts - a composite object crafted both by human hand (a gilded fragment of a fine art plasterwork frame cast over 100 years ago) and by natural forces (driftwood tumbled over unknown time by the sea) that needs careful attentive handling - is my intuitive felt response.

Great to start the year with a published piece of writing in the 2023 New Year issue “The Life of Lines” in @Haus_a_rest
https://www.haus-a-rest.com/issue-32-writing-pattern-power
Written in response to 2012 Meander series - where lines were drawn & stitched on fragile Chinese rice #paper, creating meditative time & space.
Such a privilege to spend two weeks on Artist Retreat at Cil Rialaig, Ireland. I decided to turn my residency cottage in a personal Asylum (subject of my PhD thesis): a sanctuary for creative healing where I could let go the habits and necessary resiliences of the past 4 years.
Just dropped off my work …& it’s a hot ☀️ hot install day for curator Isabel de Vasconcellos & team for this week’s Royal Society of Sculptors Summer Show at Cromwell Place. Can’t wait to see how my work contributes in such amazing company. 19-24th July 10-6pm.

"I had such a great time looking through the submissions to the Royal Society of Sculptors Summer Show this year. The quality was amazing, and curatorially, there were several directions I could have taken in my selection. Given more space, I would’ve chosen two or even three themes to explore, but in the end, there was a particularly strong confluence of works that touched on landscape and the natural world. I think together they will make for a poetic and transporting exhibition, with a touch of humour thrown in."

In May it was such a pleasure to go and do some "scratch/improvised filming" for Royal Holloway's Dept Drama,Theatre & Dance Arboretum Summer Workshop led by Libby Worth and Rebecca McCutcheon
The workshop in the arboretum offered drama students an opportunity to explore 3.5 acres of land that was originally part of the Botany Department at RHUL with a wide range of trees from around the world planted for study from 1950 into the 1970s. The workshop focus was on environmental sustainability and the creation of movement and text performances in response to the special qualities of the woods. We created scratch performances on the final day which were filmed rather than offered live to ensure safety given the pandemic restrictions/concerns. My filming has been edited by Brandon Thompson (BA Student Drama and Film/TV & who also performed) and will soon be live on their website.

Can't wait to see my little bronze sculpture in the #10gram Challenge exhibition
The long-awaited #10gram Challenge exhibition will be installed at Dora House on Sunday 4 July 2021, opening to the public on Monday 5 July.
More than 200 miniature sculptures will be on display, made by members and other invited sculptors.
The idea transpired when Alex Davies, founder of Milwyn and member of the Royal Society of Sculptors, challenged himself to make a small sculpture when he was isolated at home during lockdown, unable to access his studio space. Realising the plight of other members faced with the same restrictions, the challenge grew organically as a way to create something on a smaller scale from the kitchen table.

Delighted to have been invited by Sonia Overall (founder) to become a member of the Women Who Walk Network
#womenwhowalknet.
Walking the weekly #DistanceDrift collective walks connected across space and time has been the highlight of my lockdown and kept me in touch with my site-responsive practice.
Wind Walking (2016) which I made at The Observatory, Lymington as part of the spudworks residency has been chosen by Sadhna Jain for a publication titled Active Agency © UAL, to contextualise Jane Bennett's quotation about vital matter. It is on p.125 in the section about Ontology.
Active Agency was published July 2020. and electronic and paper copies are available.
"An actant never really acts alone." Jane Bennett in Vibrant matter : a political ecology of things
Another lovely project I was invited to be a small part of last year was #ADifferentLens in Margate. This walking project with interactive map has just achieved highly commended in the Sound Walk September 2020's Awards
Congratulations to all involved!
"The jury appreciated the geolocated nature of this project, the precise mapping, the quality of the binaural recordings, and the text and images that accompanied the recordings. One juror found that repeated listening revealed many echoes between the different narratives, and the themes of blindness and sight.
As the creators wrote, this project unveils the human connections and emotional underpinnings of maps: objects that we usually consider flat, static and objective".
A Different Lens did a takeover of our weekly Twitter #DistanceDrift collective lockdown walk with Sonia Overall. My performative response was to Diana Lane's entry referencing Deanna Quietwater Noriega's poem Dancers.

So chuffed to be asked to contribute the fabulous DWELL.IN.G project by Pell Ensemble and Mira Loew
https://www.pellensemble.com/dwell-in-g-menu.
dwell.in.g is a project created by Rebecca Evans and Mira Loew in collaboration with 10 professional artists and the residents of Waltham Forest. A physical response capturing the momentum of change, stillness of isolation and the personal stories that dwell in our homes and community.
The making of dwell.in.g took place between May-August 2020.
Using projectors people invited a virtual dancer into their space, creating a response that incorporated themselves, the dancer and their home. Developed through a series of questions and conversations this was a unique making process with each participant, offering a space for people to reflect, create and speak about their experiences as we moved in and out of isolation.
A collection of 97 videos, 126 photos, 10 pieces of original writing and 12 original sound scores were created.

Uranium glass and silicone tubing
Site-responsive sculpture
This site-responsive piece is fashioned by the holes and fixings of previous artists, thereby inscribing the past directly into the present space. By combining memories of my own grandmother’s 1930 uranium glass collection (with its vibrant potential energy) together with modern fluorescent silicone, I explore a brittle tension that exists in our current political nostalgia.

"A playful engagement with the spaces of Kuopio, ANTI Festival’s host city, has been at the heart of our approach to bringing vital, exciting and surprising contemporary art to this ever receptive and inquisitive community for 17 years. For 2018 we’re focusing our attentions properly on play and gaming – gaming in both its contemporary sense as an engagement with digital environments but also in a more expanded sense: what games, and what play, as adults, as young people, as children, do we engaged with – what forms does play take, and where and how to do we encounter it?"

Michelle Loa Kum Cheung and I are getting everything prepared for our first collaboration:
Reorientated: a Conversation of Different Geographies.
A-Side B-Side gallery, 352 Mare St E8 1HR 22-26th June 2017 & Artists' talk Sat 24th June 3-4pm
Loa Kum Cheung and Brixey-Williams create a disjunctive path that dances between Western upbringing and Eastern composition. Deconstructing the terrains of their own backgrounds, they attempt to understand the relationship between physical and cultural heritage within the context of personal experience. Drawing upon the Chinese notion of Shan Shui, where the purpose is less about realism and more about an expression of the mind and heart, the artists are able to absorb technical qualities of composition, rhythm and flow to cultivate personal landscapes that offer a variety of perspectives upon the idea of belonging. This repositioning unites the artists as they deploy some of the boundaries of Asian landscape art and calligraphy to investigate disconnections between time and location, allowing the pre-existing landscapes to be absorbed into the original meaning of ‘–scape’: a personal and continued material engagement with place.

So very chuffed to have my textile piece on the front of the flyer for the Love and Peace show at the National Art Centre, in Tokyo. The exhibition was curated by the group Nihon Bijyutsu Kai (founded in 1947) who operate an Anti-Academism approach. The show had great audience figures due to the blockbusting Yayoi Kusama exhibition next door!
We are very excited that our pointandplace Hexagon game will be launched at Play: two days of exhibitions and performances at the Hin Bus Depot, the busy contemporary art space in Penang. I will also be sending a score - A Drawing of Two Characters - to be performed by Lusy Koror and a second local artist.

Such very exciting news. SPUD have chosen me to be the last Artist-in-Residence at the award-winning Observatory in Lymington before it moves to Mottisfont Abbey (and later in November to Bucklers Hard).
I went down yesterday and met everyone involved (including the current artist Julie Collins who kindly explained the vagaries of the charcoal stove!) and took a wonderful 2 hour walk along the seawall - lots of ideas already percolating.
Dates when I will be in residence: 18th & 19th March then 18th - 27th April
Check out the previous artists' work on http://lookinlookout.org or on exhibition at the St Barbe Museum and Art Gallery, Lymington until 16th April.
Once I get established I will be blogging on https://www.facebook.com/SPUDObservatory/?fref=ts.
Or come down and see me - it's beautiful.

I've been mentoring a young girl once a week for the past 3 years (since she was a 11). Today we did an exercise where she explored her face by palpation with one hand, with her eyes firmly shut, while simultaneously drawing with the other (& keeping the pencil on the paper at all times). First she drew the bony landscape for 10 mins and then repeated the process in blue pencil as she felt her way around the muscles and flesh.
I just love it!

Rosebud 2004 has been selected by Dr. Stella Bolaki and artist Egidija Ciricaite for the bookarts exhibition
Prescriptions (Beaney House of Art & Knowledge, 21 April -14 August 2016). It will present artists' books by Maine book artist Martha Hall, for the first time in the UK. Hall's books, created from 1998 until her death in 2003, document her experiences with breast cancer and her interactions with the medical community. They use many constructions and designs that challenge the conventional book form and demand a physical reading. The Prescriptions exhibition will also include a supporting show of artists’ books by national and international artists responding to themes of art and wellbeing that is curated by Dr Stella Bolaki and Egidija Čiricaitė. This show forms part of the Artists' Books and the Medical Humanities project at the University of Kent.

Before Performance
Bryony White has created an informal research installation where the sketchbooks become objects in their own right. A marvellous achievement to collect such a variety of formats from UK and international artists, which are arranged simply to allow the viewer to handle and truly engage with the material. Making choices, climbing steps, negotiating bodies, creating exchange and donning the white gloves brings the viewer one step closer to a their own active performance in the space.
