The Mudhead Dance | Sponsume

So I thought I'd try crowd-sourcing as a way to raise match funding for my ACE proposal. Its been a bit of a slow start, but I'm hoping after a new shoot tomorrow momentum might pick up.

If you want to donate to my project pls click the Sponsume Link and visit my campaign page. Every donation makes a huge difference as it all goes towards the project. Every donation is also rewarded, with rewards ranging from signed photographs to prints to props from the performance.

New studio V22 - Biscuit Factory

Its been far too long since I put anything on here, but new studio new motivation. Well, I say new... I have been here since January. Anyway, these are some studio shots of some new shamanic tramp costumes I am making for a new project currently titled 'The Mudhead Dance'.

More to follow soon....

Even in death Hug is in trouble with the law

This is taken from the front page of The Art Newspaper yesterday. I could not believe my eyes when I read it, so I immediately called the gallery to check the story out...... yes it was true. Best press ever.

There were (ever so slightly) red faces all round earlier this week at the non-profit John Jones Project Space in North London when police were called to investigate a possible break-in at the gallery. On discovering a deathly white, scarily stiff body at the far end of the room, the key holding company understandably alerted the boys in blue. Project Space managers were even called with the macabre news that a corpse had been found coiled up in the corner. But fear not—the police later telephoned to say that the dead man was, in fact, not really a man after all. The grisly find turned out to be a striking sculptural piece by RCA graduate Adam James which forms part of the current "Manderley" exhibition (one word: phew).
