That tricky second album. I fell over a documentary on Sky Arts a few days ago, about Australian art, and thought it would concern Aboriginal work which I’ve written about in my dissertation.

One of the few places in the village to have a nearly reliable phone signal (good luck with that national emergency text!) is by the river between two fields and under a flyover. I use the graffiti there as targets for AR videos based on my paintings, curating content to cater for all ages and sensibilities. On Bank Holiday Monday (UK) May 29th, I ‘opened’ my exhibition after posting on our local Facebook page details of its whereabouts and what people needed to be able to view the exhibits. I also said I would be there from 10-11am and 3-4pm … Continue reading Art in the Wild Gallery
