fill in the blanks







Think about space, escaping, hiding spaces, building a house on a moving object. thriving in departure zones like bus stations and airports. standing still in a dust storm or at the top of Martin Place. waiting watching. think about closing your eyes and imagine running so fast. you breathe fast, start gasping for air and you haven't moved a muscle. lying at the bottom of the pool and looking up through the water. diving. listening to your breath. closing your eyes.







then think about construction/fabrication/make up masks/costumes/houses.







games/ ladders/interiors/superfluous decoration and the definition of O.T.T . and imagine how much you can hide under that distraction, colourful beautiful creative mess.

Space

Falling, hiding, gravity, empty spaces, illusions, suspended, viscosity, lightness, transparency, deeply embedded, resonant, precipice, low, low sounds, down, surfacing, covered. All spacial drawcards, backbones to the pieces I need to make and yet I'm also strongly drawn to painting. Space not exactly being painting's strong point - to continue? Or pivot to a new medium... But that's so lovely to feel that when you fall into a blank space, maybe it becomes dimensionless for a second.
