A lady came to talk to us today about submitting some work into an exhibition in Limerick, it is very short notice but will submit a couple of pieces. Put 3 items into the drawing competition today. Went to blog after tea but the computers broke down and no internet access.
We had a discussion with Katriona and Nigel about our video exhibition in January, it was very intriguing but seems to be an awful lot of work for so very little marks, especially as it is assessment time then.

Photography this morning, just developing stuff in the dark room, very interesting. I prefer the process to digital, I think the photos are better too.
Health man said they going to install heaters in studio, fair play to him.More research for the essay today, did a bit more to the jigsaw. The down side to the jigsaw is that it looks like that I have got no work done!

Was under this misguided notion that our essay had to be in today, turns out its Wednesday.
Spent the day researching for the essay, it is about the simulacrum in representation. I am very intrigued about the notion of the era of the simulacrum, it is similar in some respects to the matrix. Like the writings of Guy Debord, he could see the matrix for what it is.Did a bit more to the jigsaw. Wrote e mail to the health and safety guy again, about the heating (or lack thereof).

Started writing the essay today, got bogged down with the intricacies of the format, so never really achieved a lot by going in. Did a bit more to the jigsaw.
Hope to make a jigsaw puzzle in ceramic, should be interesting. I am also going to investigate the topic of missing people in Ireland. I can use the metaphor of the missing jigsaw piece of a puzzle. I hope to perhaps get some images of missing people and to make portrait paintings using the reduction method, so as to make the images barely recognisable. I am quite excited about this new direction, it has a lot of potential, and is also a contemporary issue.
