Using Autoethnographic Abstracted Materialism, 2050:2100 weaponises art and collaboration to resist the void and establish a network of Creative Kindness. My work is driven by the impending Geopolitical Climate chaos of biome degradation, resource scarcity, mass migration and societal collapse. Using up precious resources, I asked A.I. when the Earth would become uninhabitable: ‘Predicting an…

Well I never did find my sundress, but I did find a roll of red felt and thousands of rhinestones so the costume is coming along a treat! Rhinestones, have become a staple in the worlds of fashion, costume design, and decorative arts. Yet, behind the sparkle lies a set of environmental concerns that no…

I can’t find my sundress, I have a feeling it was already donated to charity long ago. For me it represented gender dysphoria and the worlds growing clothes mountain. What am I to make my dick and boobs out of? What I did find buried in my studio instead was some tribal belly dancing costumes…

I have thought of my problem of ‘Earth Saving’, in terms of ‘Game Theory’. The Players: Collective humanity and the heteronormative power structures making decisions in the game. The Strategies: The options available to each player. The Payoffs: The rewards that players receive. Hetronormative Payoffs: A globalised economy Utility acquisition Money and ‘success’ without empathy…

First a quick run down of basic terms: LLM (Large Language Model)A Large Language Model is a type of AI trained on huge amounts of text data to understand and generate human-like language. Think of it like a super-smart-arse. It can write essays, answer questions, summarise information, and even hold conversations. GPT-4 and Gemini are…

A Reflective Examination of Autoethnographic Practice and Networked Creativity: Abstracted Materiality as a Queered Conceptual Practice. While collating the Unit 3 Assessment, I wondered why I intuitively chose to abstract materiality within my process practice? Why did I conceptualise the prioritisation of ideas over traditional materiality? In this blog post, I want to focus on…

9th May… I am three sessions in, and I can see progress. The bum prints went well; there is gooch and hair. The nipple one is not as good. I am printing on art wrap paper, which is waxy. Also, the gel plate was dirty. I normally like the roughage, but this didn’t pick up…

Trigger warning: Flashing images, themes of Climate Chaos, War, Death, Global Anihilation, Sex… sadly no rock and roll… some funky music though… A Massive Amount of Community Art Activism and fish… An Agender Penguin, a Non-binary Polar Bear and a Nasty Oily Orca… and a lot of Art… nice… https://youtu.be/dHpbdGRtDKk?si=HUTOS8h3SXGptsHl

This will be an ongoing blog post about the Queer Curation course with the NODE Center in Berlin – sponsored by the SU- UAL. Wednesday 7th May. I’ve just had the first session of my NODE curation course on Zoom. I am in tears, it was so lovely. 23 people from around the world all…

It is sunny with a fresh breeze on the beach. It was a perfect opportunity to try out the new painting bench. I started with a couple of layers of Liquitex clear gesso. This has a crystal aggregate that gives tooth to the canvas, and I know from previous experiments that I can lay watercolours…

Here, I look at some of the images from the sketchbook Our Struggle (German translation: Unser Kampf). They are not finished but its a good start. Select the first image, press on the i icon, and you can swipe through all the images and read the comments as you go along… Select the first image,…

I always wondered what it would have been like to live in Germany during the first part of the 1930s. I lived in a hotel in Berlin for a few years until the Wall came down. I still have a bit of it in a plastic bag somewhere in the studio. Berlin changed before/during/after the…

Does thinking about your art process interfere with that process? …Maybe, but its always facinating to understand why… Like a reveal… Do artists really love to talk about their process? You’d think so; it’s de rigueur in art academia and the white cube blurb. We dissect it, analyse it, share it on social media, and…

This was very much a working Tutorial, and after our situational awareness catch-up, we got down to the business of the grad show. We discussed the current state of trans politics and how that affects my art practice, my future PhD, its associated art/network, and myself personally. First, you are what you are; none of…

This workshop is designed for public art, creative connection and representation. It is available for anyone to run: The performance: Pink is made from many colours, including baby blue, to represent kindness and connection and black is an historic representation and pigment development of heteronormative colonial oppressive power structures. That pink can overcome the non-reflective…

My sketchbook exploration of 2050:2100 is going well. My physical pain is not going well; my sciatica has switched legs. How the f*ck does it do that!!! Thankfully, after years of being a long-haul airline pilot and high-altitude mountaineer, I can fall asleep anywhere… sadly I still wake up in pain; it’s not helping my…

I got an email today. You know, the kind that makes your heart skip before you’ve even opened it. I was shortlisted; there were three places, and I was number 4! If you are confused and think this is the NTU PhD, no, this is an opportunity for an online course paid for by the…

50:00 Is it Pink? It is partly inspired by the 1915 exhibition, ‘The Last Futurist Exhibition of Paintings 0,10’ (pronounced ‘zero-ten’). It was held at Marsovo Pole, Petrograd, from December 19, 1915, to January 17, 1916. Organised by the Dobychina Art Bureau, this exhibition marked the debut of Suprematism, an art movement characterised by geometric…

This is the title for my new body of work that I hope to show at the Grad show. I’m collecting all my supplies of black and pink materials to make the work. The Sketch Book. I am testing my ideas before I go big… its going well so far… the music is a collaberation…

Basically, the Earth is F*ck. I can categorically say that after 3 years of reading scientific data. I was talking to a climate change student last night, and their university offers them mental health counselling as part of their course; it’s that grim. Mass Migration, Resource scarcity, Unpredictable climate chaos, and climate breakdown. But before…

I had a great conversation with JK at the low-res about my plan for the grad show. It was well thought out, used the durational artwork Identity Flags 2024-, incorporated the inspiration of the Leigh Bowery exhibition… I love a costume… especially a naughty one… It faced out to the world… Then I came home…

When a friend said how remarkable I am doing and how I manage to land on my feet when faced with challenging setbacks… I replied instantly… I don’t see them as setbacks but as an opportunity for a new adventure… For the first time since my temporal turn, I thought I was really excited about…

The interesting part of an autoethnographic art practice is the minutiae of self-examination. On Friday, I had a meeting with my prospective PhD supervisors. As always, it was a Wow moment. The stuff we talked about can’t help but affect my art practice; it is impossible for it not to. Pain is an unwelcome companion…

I’m having a shit winter; I have done nothing but write funding statements, blogs, proposals, and reports (this is not totally true, but it does feel like it at times)… FFS!… is this the life of an artist… Well, yes and no, if you want to save the Earth, probably… and for any artist to…

At the moment, I am surviving, but I can’t say I am thriving. The bloody cats are killing me… up five times last night. I don’t think two chest-fed kids were this much work, but I’ve probably forgotten, and I was a quarter of a century younger and a lot, lot fitter… In other art…

Well, I was chatting to my daughter about grief; it’s not easy, is it? Grief is like layers of an onion; you peel one off, and there is more underneath, raw and smelly, making your eyes water. I’m not sure I like onions… Gwyl Cariad is in its final week, and lots is going on.…

There’s something profound about the way Keanu Reeves talks about pain. Not as something to be conquered or eliminated, but as a shape-shifting companion in life’s journey. In one of his most touching reflections, the actor shared his perspective on pain and resilience, offering wisdom that resonates with anyone who’s faced life’s harder moments. ‘Pain…

Coming Out: When Gender Finally Makes Sense I’ve spent nearly six decades being called “she.” Six decades of checking the “F” box on forms. Six decades of being someone’s daughter, sister, wife, and mother. Six decades of thinking there was something wrong with those other feminine women. Me trying to perform feminity, but looking in…

It’s report-writing time now. The overall view is people need more information. They need clear guidance, and they are legitimately worried. Extreme weather has marred the two public in-person workshops, which is rather appropriate. The best experience for me was with young adults with delayed learning difficulties. In many ways, they were the most verbal…

The more I work on this piece, the more I love it. I’m on Red Notice at the moment, and nothing is working body-wise, so obviously, it is time to make an animation! Back irla (in real life art), the collage has 2 of the fluorescent paint coats out of the recommended 3, and as…

The Alfie and Neville collage is coming on a treat, and the great thing about Christmas is there is always lots of shiny waste… perfect for climate change instillations. I’m thinking the animation will be using the collage as digital cut-outs with a little AI for some of the groups characters! The collage is getting…

I thought I’d reflect on the Miro feedback, I will listen to the what worked for me later… (with a box of tissues) Reading the Miro comments was fascinating because some of you understood my practice, and some didn’t! This means that, in real terms, I haven’t fully explained it. That’s pretty important for me!…

I am writing this on my new iPad with a keyboard. I don’t like buying new tech; it’s not good for the planet, but it seems it is good for me. When my heart stalls, my touch screen doesn’t work… it thinks I am dead. Managing my enviroment is a day to day struggle. This…

Walton (2024) asks ‘Is AI Art Less Carbon Intensive Than Human Art?’ They are looking at a paper by Tomlinson et al. (2024) that proposes that the carbon emissions of image and copy production are lower when we use ai opposed to when a human creates it. Already in this blog, I have done what…

As always, it was a productive combination of discussion with liberal amounts of questions and answers. Art, for me, in the last 4 years has been a constant stream of surprises of self-discovery and unexpected outcomes. Nonetheless, I am now starting to see Art as some form of nonlinear energy transfer, a Schrödinger like theorum.…

I went to a workshop run by Sue from Marmaladecat. It was all about printmaking and collaging into a concertina work. I had enjoyed the book-making/paper-folding at the low res, and I had taught concertina sketchbooks on the beach, which, along with collage and printmaking, seemed an ideal way to spend an afternoon. I, of…

Over the next few weeks, my art practice will look like a never-ending stream of reel-making for the Wales Climate Virtual Conference, digital marketing course in London, funding proposals, spreadsheets, meetings, report writing, sorting out camera tech et al.

I am writing this straight after the Thursday session. 17th of October – I was unusually quiet in this session mainly because I was having an epiphany. I have always detested the obsession with ambiguity within Contemporary art. I see it as a capitalist product of making art more suitable to sell. In a conversation…

In summer, when we have one, I often paint outside on the beach. If I do workshops, the painting bench is used to work at or for a cuppa. The painting bench has a long history. It’s got to be 15 years old. The lads first made it from the Parachute Regiment because when they…

Using the paintings I’ve been working on using the watercolour, ink and alcohol ink from recycled markers. I am developing a workshop for the Climate Conservation initiative in Wales and to launch the Gwyl Carrid – Festival of Love in Aberystwyth. The paintings: Tides of Love was my favourite so in Contemporary Dadaesque splendour I…

A sentence from my PhD study statement says, ‘Crip theory rejects the normative medical model of ‘dis’-abled. Crips are disabled only as a result of societal barriers and attitudes.’ After Borthfest this year, we had a debrief and asked interested parties to come and say what worked and what didn’t. One of the fantastic folks…

I started a Tiger sleeve on Dr ‘Tiger Sue’ this summer. She had interviewed me for her PhD on tattooing. This is not her sleeve, but a ‘trad’ cat I tattooed last week, which was cool… Today, I gave a second interview to Alex Rheinhart Assistant Professor of Management and PhD Coordinator, Department of Management…

When I started this journey, this is not where I thought I’d end up… Of course, this journey started a long time ago. Art isn’t a BA or an MA or even a PhD… art is a creative expression of what is not easily said… but I said that last week… I enjoy writing, and…

So, I got the finished tattoo art up in the studio… on the walls, the cupboard, the hallway and even the ceiling. After saying I would probably never tattoo any of these designs, a regular saw the boar and devil on the ceiling and has booked to have them tattooed on his sleeve in two…

This project started as a tidy-up when I swapped the studio around. I found sheets of tattooing designs that reimagined 120 years of tattooing. I had drawn these in lockdown on Procreate and had printed them on Blockinford St. Cuthbert’s Mill 300gsm cold press watercolour paper. A handful I had painted, but these had not…

I’ve finished the animation for the workshop. I will tweak the timings once Clems has a look at how it fits in the PowerPoint. He’s on holiday now, so it will be in September when we get back to it. The festival meeting went well, and we have a name for the CIC Big Wave…

Amid a tattooing summer, I have my eye on my Art life. BorthFest will come around sooner than one thinks, and a new festival earlier in the year in the neighbouring town is starting to build on the creative network. Tomorrow’s meeting with Sally will look more deeply at funding and setting up the CIC…

Been a busy time, great to see my dear friend at his meet the artist night with Aberrations and Ceredigion Museum in conjunction with The British Museum. Every day is a learning day, and I know I have so much to learn, especially about BAME and colonialism. I grew up in a racist culture and…

I am a self-styled Contemporary Dadaist. I try to make art without making art, without creating more waste and consuming more resources. I try to use up what I already have and reuse everything I can. I have, like the planet, finite resources. My art practice is networking and weaponising art to Save the Earth…

As always, during my four years of academic fine art, I have returned for a summer of tattooing. I give talks on tattoo history and especially the changing nature of tools and techniques. This year will see the start of licensing for tattooing here in Wales. This will be a test bed for its rollout…

I’ve had flu for over two weeks, or is it COVID-19? I have no idea. As a household, we are a plague house. We all have it. I am always busy; I probably have ADHD… I know that it’s more nuanced than that, but.. I have ‘managed’ my neuro-spicy nature by always being busy and…

Yesterday was the end of the first year of my MA. We ended our year with a Clay-focused afternoon. Of course, like anything on this course, nothing is as it seems, and it was indeed very little to do with clay. Possibility would be my takeaway from this year. Like a block of Red Clay…

This is an ongoing blog post, as we have yet to sit down and debrief formally. I need a complete analytical look at the social engagement figures, but on IG alone, we had 24,000 hits. The anecdotal response to the events was we attracted new people to Borth who had never been here before, and…

What is Art (2024) is an art installation made for the BorthFest Pilot Art Festival. It asks how, where, and what art should be. Inspired by the panels made for the identity flag project, specifically the Trans Flag F*sting the Oil Companies (2024) for my Fine Art MA at Central Saint Martins UAL. It looks…

Ironic materiality is at play again. The FTOC pages have had a wash of 1970s rose madder last week on the ‘pink side’ and today a second layer of blue on the ‘blue side’. The first blue wash was a mix of cobalt blue left over from paintmaking. Today was a wash of Winsor and…

According to the British Fashion Council, there are now enough clothes on the planet to dress the next six generations of humans, even taking into account population expansion. What that means is as we buy that new outfit, we contribute to the clothes mounting that charities can’t deal with. Third-world countries don’t want these clothes;…

I love thinking, and it turns out that art takes a lot of thought… Thinking is one of my last great pleasures, along with food; Mateus rose and masturbating to the vision of a young Brad Pit dressed as a femboy or in that leather skirt in Troy and George Clooney in ER… I know…

First will there be a future? Yes if we are brave and bold… The Earth will exceed 1.5c warming. The IPCC report says large parts of the Earth will become uninhabitable shortly. Which means mass migration, government instability, civil unrest and war. The climate is not only getting hotter, but it is becoming unstable. If…

Well, by Mid-way through the interim exhibition/ low-res, I was laying in bed looking at videos my coursemate Madeline Kay had sent me… It’s all about pacing…this always was as much about logistics as art, about friendship and connection… about coping with physical disability and my ability/inability to look after my body… My minders have…

I started running a series of workshops last year and will start up again in April. My home of Borth shuts down for winter. It is a storm beach, after all. There have been parties, but I’ve been head down in the studio rather than dancing on the tables… One of my art group’s requests…

I’m going to tell you a story. I am always doing that, but this is to give you context. A long time ago, a junior British Airways airline pilot (me) was posted to the Boeing 757/767 fleet. This fleet operated on ‘bidline’ rules. Each month, each pilot had to bid for the trips they wanted.…

The concept of plurality within the context of a Contemporary Dadaesque practice finally clarified the understanding of the intersectionality of Gender Identity, Ableism and Geo-political climate crisis. It’s important to note that the body doesn’t possess a gender, as gender and sex are not synonymous. Being outside the binary simply implies that the presented gender…

Truth is a very dangerous word mediated by time, platform and culture. An unguarded innocence creates a paradox, elements that stick together and order what we can’t control. Fixed cultural concepts of certainty are conceived to avoid madness. We crave to understand concepts as immovable truths. In the end, this leads to cultural stagnation and…

Some days feel like an uphill struggle; well, we can all identify with that, I am sure. However, if you are disabled, it becomes an absolute sh*t show at times, and you ask yourself, why do I do it? I could sit on the furry deck chair looking out to sea minding my own darn…

I have spent f*cking hours on this, and I bloody hate it… I thought I could ignore aesthetic sensibilities and know that the conceptual underpinning was sound… well I can’t!!!

It’s been my life’s ambition To be somebody’s rebellion. Don’t provoke his interlocutor. AI was completely unrestrained, mentally liberated.
