Day two of our exhibition. Yesterday I hadn’t dared try out the ‘living podium’; took the plunge today, letting out a rhythmic stream of words, an associative free flow of thought which unearthed a veritable pick’n’mix of memories. The other best thing today was Fran suggesting that we collaborate on a drawing. I’m beginning to relax, to enjoy the possibilities.
I remember a critic describing the Austrian artist Erwin Wurm’s work as like a collaboration between Hieronymous Bosch and Looney Tunes; I think my work has the same kind of quality. Visitors today mentioned both nightmares and hilarity.
