I am here, it is lovely and my studio is enormous. Just about settled in now so looking forward to really getting stuck in to some new work. My head is overflowing with ideas so I shall have to try and start somewhere, I find myself gravitating towards writing again. Seems like there is a lot to see here too so, excited about seeing some new artists and perhaps a different approach to showing work?
More about the residency, Linz and the other artists can be seen here.
Found out last week that Liverpool Biennial put me forward for a residency over the summer with Linz Kutur at the Atelierhaus; a newly renovated artists studio centre and exhibition space in the centre of Linz, Austria.
So, I leave on Tuesday – loads of time to plan and everything. But, this last-minute-ness may be a blessing in disguise so I am ready to get there and just see what happens…. Linz seems to be a bit of a rebel as far as Austria is concerned, with loads of contemporary art and architecture, not to mention the Ars Electronica Centre and festival, can’t wait!
I may even come back all digital!
new blog on a-n to document the process coming soon and I shall be having an online conversation throughout with Fiona Flynn, an artist from London, who will be in Vilnius (the other Capital of Culture this year) at the same time..
Bye for now.
