I'm doing a thing ...

Details of my artist residency and how you can help me out.

I’m a lucky sausage, I really am.

For 4 weeks, starting this Sunday, I’ll be holed up in a gallery in Kemptown, Brighton, showing existing work AND making new work.

I’m hoping people will pop in and say hello (Wed - Sun 9-11am and 3-6pm) - the rest of the time I’ll be working behind closed doors playing with projection mapping, touch screen interaction and CCTV cameras.

I’m also doing a handful of free events - take a look at the flyers below.

You see. I could wait to let people in only when I have a gallery filled with perfectly glitching monitors, projectors that don't overheat and ancient desktops that NEVER lose connection ... but what would be the fun in that?

Instead I'm choosing to create in public (kinda).

I WANT people to come in while I’m messing about with wires .. . I want people to prod and poke and have a go and see what happens.

(I am going to be strict about my closed hours tho so avoid turning up between 11am and 3pm).

The details

Location: Mid Street Lab on St George’s Road from this Sunday (set up day).

Opening hours: The doors will be open to the public on Wed - Sun 9am-11am and 3pm-6pm.
