Research & Development


Period of professional development supported by a grant awarded from Arts Council England.
Various locations: 20 June 2013 - 31 March 2014.

I produced three projects - in Newtown, Wembley and Birmingham - using different forms of public engagement in their development and creation. I also undertook mentoring from three arts professionals to help guide and develop my professional practice. The progress and outcomes of the various projects and fields of enquiry were documented on this blog.

Trying to Meet Steve Messam

Today’s mentoring with Steve Messam didn’t quite go to plan. As I made my way up to Kendal to meet him his car broke down, leaving him stranded in the middle of Cumbria with very occasional mobile reception. He was finally able to get a message to me via the breakdown service and I had to entertain myself whilst he got sorted out.

We finally managed to meet up with only a couple of hours before my train was due, but we made the most it - setting out a plan of what we intended to do with Steve asking searching questions about my practice. The rest of the mentoring will be conducted via email and Skype.
