This Is What I Have To Say About That

Greetings. This is my new creation.  It was the hottest day of the year 2 times in a row and against extreme weather conditions, I created a masterpiece headpiece by my alter ego and fashion brain child  Mind like Magpie www.mindlikemagpie.com Mystery revealed. (Fox sold separately)  I was feeling sick with myself for being in a creative void of  empty nothingness.  So for the first time since my departure from the deep dark and damp depths of The Vaults I MADE SOMETHING.  It hurts inside when you have so much to give and get out - For some reason it gets stuck-  And so do you.  So I forced my hand, pulled my finger out and  touched the sides.  IT WAS SO HOT.  SO SO HOT My fingers were sweating so hard I actually had holes in the ends of them.  This is what pulling your finger out looks like. Dear me I love this hat.  Great Green Greatness. Quite an unusual little number.  Bunny ears creating the aura of spring.  My new workshop for &

"Its the first time as a journalist, that I have seen anything like this..." Never could I have comprehended or thought this existed in my mind' Genuine quote from a genuine journalist of London Live. Thanks to  TIME OUT  ,  Le Cool  and  Just Opened London ,  The Museum House Of Death P.V had a simply ridiculous turn out. About a million people showed up and they were queuing from 6.30 to gone 8.30 to get in.  Not very private Private View  It was so busy at 7 they held the door and thrust me onto the stage for the first performance excerpt of SING FOR YOUR LIFE! A musical parody featuring the recently deceased. A cross between X Factor and Pet Rescue...

The performance itself was a magical blur as 3 talented   mammals took to the

Soooooo This exhibition of macabre mania has crept up in the wings pretty quick.  One week to go and I've barley told a soul-   It's basically a top secret event. . . .  . PHA Currently being an artist isn't as cool as it seems. Sometimes you have to come down to real life earth and make important phone calls and pretend to be really clever. I've spent more time in front of my computer than ever before. My fingers have been soldered to the keys in a flurry of invites and admin duties that quite frankly isn't my forte. I want to be in the garden talking to flowers not emailing weirdos about my show. Being everything is hard. Doing everything for yourself is harder. These baby's need to be ready in time for Thursday. Cutting it a bit fine...  In reality i'm just a normal girl.Normal normal normal. .... Who has strange visions of terrifying and hilarious nature.  Sometimes a trance like state comes over me and I start moving my arms around as

Come and experience lost lives and forgotten pasts sitting together in   juxtor posed shrines. Terrifying, intriguing, provocative mixed media assemblage sculpture. Blunt visual puns and methods mock popular culture and tradition. Using context as a vortex, surrounding it with a mystical air of surreal absurdist humour.  --- As well as sculpture, c ontroversial animalation video pieces will also be screened as well as performance, where real animal are manipulated by hand to perform, sing and dance. Some viewers will find all of these images deeply offensive as they  push the limits on taste, ethics and the subject of controversy itself... I'll be doing excerpts from the musical show '
