Drawing Shed week 5: Emily Speed

There are also some images of the project and collaborative drawing evening at PSL on their Drawing Shed blog

here’s the blurb: Emily Speed will create a cyclic drawing on the exterior of the shed over 4 days. Starting with proposals/sketches for structures – reminiscent of bulidings – which are prevalent in her work, Speed will then explore the physical impossibilities of these structures and the drawing will change to show construction, collapse and repair before perhaps collapsing again.

The A Curriculum exhibition at A Foundation had it’s opening last Friday and happily the Director liked it so much, he has decided to extend it to be open Fridays and Saturdays until 22nd May, alongside the ‘Economy of the Gift exhibition there, so please go down and have a look if you can!

An exhibition opens here at the Salzamt on Friday 24th July. Most artists have bought work with them, but limited by Ryanair’s measly 15kg allowance and the fact that most of my work is squashable, I have nothing with me to show. This goes a long way to explaining the mess I have made in my studio frantically shredding cardboard and going through much paper as I make and reject drawings. Still it is good to be making lots and to be drawing so much. The space I will be using to show is a lovely little niche and images will follow of the show set up when I have settled on some suitable work. In the meantime, I also want to stress the joy and usefulness of having a 7ft pin board in your studio – fantastic stuff!

Happily settled in my new studio space, I am working on some new drawings to go in an exhibition at the Lost Soul and Stranger Service Station (also known as the Old Barber Shop) at the Bluecoat in Liverpool.

The exhibition is open from 21st May – 19th June and the opening is on the 21st May from 6pm onwards. Venue can be found here.
