After the in conversation event with Irene Fubara-Manuel and Kinnari Saraiya accompanying her exhibition In the Eye of a Dream - the three of us came up with a reading list on the reading of colonial archives, race and technology, video games and a lot more - lots to dig into!

I love a studio visit and I had a great one last week with Laura White, ahead of an exhibition at Phoenix Art Space in autumn
We talked about the process of making, the joy of pushing materials to their limits and how enjoy and utilise what happens when they fail

Good to be at the launch of Brighton Festival last night, catching up with a lot of folk I haven’t seen in a while - also great to get a festival highlight nod for the show I’m curating at Phoenix Art Space with the work of the amazing Kinnari Saraiya

A grey winter’s day visit to Hastings Contemporary for the Immortal Apples, Eternal Eggs exhibition exploring the practice of still life. Work pictured is a section of Cathie Pilkington’s funny, sad and uncanny Singerie. The show is definitely worth a visit if you’re able to

Enjoyable visit to London Art Fair today. Enjoyed talking to a few people and seeing A LOT of work - highlights from Abigail Norris not pictured because I was too busy chatting and Antonio Sergio Moreira on the Ricardo Fernandes stand.

Fascinating Asian Bronze exhibition at the Rijksmuseum - this is a 19th century Japanese incense burner, the bronze worked with chemicals to create the coloured patination

Recently read this fascinating account of artist collective Gran Fury and how they leveraged art as protest in the early days of the AIDS pandemic - compelling and, importantly, non-hagiographic. It’s pretty clear-eyed about the group’s shortcomings as well as its successes #art #activism

The name of one of the rooms at the Tate exhibition, Women in Revolt, made me laugh out loud. Taken from work by Alexis Hunter - The Marxist’s Wife (still does the housework)
