D.I.Y.Taxidermy VII: SOLD OUT. Limited tickets on the door

 It’ll be my first public outing in a year, since announcing retirement and ONE of the LAST D.I.Y SHOWS- EVER. 
WOOOOOOOO!

This event sold out last time. AND IT'S DONE IT AGAIN!!!. But The Book Club will be releasing more tickets ON THE DOOR

 People were clawing their eyes out to get in…and some to get out. This is why:

OTT will be an understatement. Shock, awe and so much more. Pointless sensationalism. Carelessly shocking. A story to take you to the edge of your senses and sensibilities. A comedy, a tragedy, you will laugh till you cry and you will cry till you are sick.

What more could you want this Halloween Wednesday the 30th Oct at 8pm, The Book Club, Shoreditch?

Just to recap: D.I.Y Taxidermy. Live performance/demo where we will skin and stuff an animal you have grown to know and love using only what’s lying around the house in a Blue Peter style. With a waste not want not ethos we will then cook the remains and serve roadside cuisine to the more adventurous audience members. After light bites we up the tempo with LIFE! DEATH! PRIZES! Where you can then WIN real life dead artwork. Prizes really worth living for. :D


I have become very cynical of taxidermy of late. Things seem to be getting out of hand (nothing to do with me) so I’ve decided to chop them off. Shot myself in the face, cause disgrace, and take taxidermy places it has never been before- Like MUSICALS!!!!

But before the musical we must get through instalment VII: CAT GOT YOUR TOUNGE? And the only way to come is to buy a ticket. 

 More to be released on either Friday 18th and Monday 21st. So if you've read this on time  fantastic news! You could still be in with a chance of being in the audience, and with in sniffing distance to the greatest show to have ever died.

BYO Roadkill and you could end up taking some of the magic home with you.

Plug Me In, Turn Me On

I've been banned from Facebook again.  Whoops. My mum says I need to stop. It’s like, my 5 th   time now. They keep telling me that if I do anything wrong again that’s it. Wiped off the face of the face…book. I’m a repeat offender you see. Keep publishing indecent material apparently. God knows what I was dreaming about but I woke up and the first thing I did was this. It's a collage not a metaphor. Currently living in an ex mental day care centre and I found a curious collection of informational photographs, crying out for a collage or two.  These pictures of plugs were my favourite. Plug Me In, Turn Me On BANNED After creating another masterpiece, the first person I had to tell was Facebook. It turns out that Facebook can’t handle a few pieces of paper stuck together, crafted simply with an eye for detail and glue. Facebook can handle the hideous sites devoted to woman’s breasts and arses and all manor of other shameful public shows and grotesque acts of the mor

Debut Contemporary: CON ARTIST: Crimes Against Artists Humanity

Image
Subtle There's  a man called Samir Ceric in a Gallery called Debut  Contemporary  on Westborne Grove that has bullied, manipulated and lied to thousands of young, naive and inexperienced artists. Playing on the fact they are desperate to make it in the art world.  Here’s some advice for free:  YOU CAN’T BUY YOUR WAY IN There is no short cut to fame and glory. You get it by hard work and hard work only and if you are willing to work hard YOU WILL SUCCEED. You don’t need to pay over 400 pounds a month (for min 3 months contract) for a mentoring scheme from a man with no background in art whatsoever… Astoundingly Samir Ceric had just been voted (AND WON) the Hospital Club’s 100 most influential people in the Art and Design category. "I CHOKED ON MY LOAD" Now let me give you some background on the winner: A serial and self-styled entrepreneur, with numerous failed/bankrupt business and absolutely no art qualifications at all. I was amazed

Like A Lamb to the Slaughter. Easter special.

Image
Like a Lamb to the Slaughter I had arranged for some people to come round. They just wanted to see what I got up to on my day off, take some picture ect.  I was planning on using a hare (it being Easter and all) but the only thing that was budging was a lamb.  I was planning on crucifying it before I knew about Gunther Von Hagens and his idea of taking a dead body to the Pope.  These baby lambs died of natural causes soon after birth.  Sinking feeling I decided not to wash the blood out. It's the harsh, stark  reminder of the brutality.  I then turned the spot light on and...
