etc.

+

SPONTANEOUS
MAGIC
VITAL
WONDER
EXUBERANCE

3. Can you tell us about your recent feature film Das Spiel Der Hoffnung? We’ve seen the trailer, and are excited to see more!

I love ❤️ films - making them is exciting because you don’t fill the world with physical STUFF (though Stuff can be fun - I am a hoarder)

PERFORMANCE & FILM exist in a moment of creation & viewing.

4. Who, where or what has you feeling excited at the moment?

Beauty & Making → Physical MAKING - trying hard - excitement in failure.

Who has me excited?

ALWAYS
JACK SMITH
1932-1989

ROBERT HELPMANN
ROSE WYLIE
EDITH SITWELL

READING
BOOKS
WITH
MY
EYES
CLOSED

5. We’ve watched a couple of your Inspirational Makeup Tutorials on Youtube; does the process of making and delivering work online feel like an intimate one to you and how does it compare to showing work in a gallery space? Does online feedback play an important part in that process?

Putting & making work on YOUTUBE is unique & BEST because:

The viewer & the maker are both in the same exact position - normally alone in front of webcam - it’s INTIMATE but also open & universal ~ UNTIL THEY BAN YOU.

6. Can you reflect upon a pivotal work or project, one that has played a part in shaping your practice?

ALWAYS working with other people - Balance between unspoken collaboration & explaining vision - WORDS can be ANNOYING.

10. If you had unlimited access to resources and funding, is there a piece or project that you would like to realise?

I would love to create an ever changing set - build it/ destroy it/ film it/ with people coming & going - A LIVING SKETCHBOOK MOVIE
