A summary of some of the freelance and gallery based projects I have worked on.
FREELANCE
Roma Tearne: Visions (Oxford, 2007) – Working with Roma, I assisted with the curation and planning of the blindfolding, and curated an artists' procession with illuminated birdcages at night.
Roma Tearne: Nel Corpo delle città (Rome, 2004) – This project ('On the body of the City') comprised an installation at the Museo Laboratorio di Arte Contemporanea, Universit di Roma, La Sapienza, in conjunction with blindfoldings at Campo di Fiori and the Capitaline Museums.
Various artists: Hungry For Experience (Oxford, 2003) – Working with Projection:, an organisation dedicated to finding new opportunities for artists in Oxford and beyond, three new graduates from Oxford Brookes and the Ruskin School (Oxford University) were commissioned to make new site-specific work.
Tessa Farmer: (Museum of Oxford, 2004) – Again with Projection:, Tessa Farmer was commissioned to do an installation of her trademark insect-based miniscule sculpture.
GALLERY BASED
During my time at South Hill Park Arts Centre (incorporating The Bracknell Gallery), I worked with many artists (see my 'CV' page). I was particularly proud of the following projects:
- Evidence / Assessing the Evidence (South Hill Park, 2005): Exhibition and conference (with performances) by Tom Barnett, Sebastian Blackie and Andy Glass. This focussed on performative ceramics, that is artistic ceramic practice that was as much interested in the creation as in the object. (DVD available)
- Silicon Valley (Bracknell): Camera installation with Susan Collins at Cadence offices in Bracknell - see http://www.susan-collins.net/fenlandia. Also installation of a camera to feed The Spectrascope (see website above, and select 'installations' and 'The Spectrascope')
- ARC Scheme: Development of artist's CPD programme as part of SE wide scheme led by Aspex Gallery - see www.aspex.org.uk
- Ripe (The Bracknell Gallery, 2005): I selected and mounted a new graduates' show drawing artists from Winchester School of Art, Buckinghamshire and Chilterns University College, University of Reading and University College for the Creative Arts, Farnham.
