More On Silence

Who walks in the silence

Who speaks to me in the silence

Who knows the silence

What is the silence within

What comes out of the silence

What is to be seen in the silence

Other Reality

What do I sense in the silence

Where does the silence take me

When do I seek silence

When is silence not silence

What does silence feel like

What is the significance of silence

Why do I search for silence

Why do I need silence

Why does silence exist

Does silence exist

Have I always sought out silence

Is my mind ever silent

Am I alone in silence

Final Major Project Grade

I'm trying really hard not to be disappointed about my FMP Grade, but I am feeling disheartened. I worked really hard for five months on this project, and I don't feel that my grade reflects the effort and work I put into it.

My Grade was three percent short of a First.

I am trying to remind myself that I have achieved so much in the past two years. I have put everything into my studies and I am passionate about my art work.

Its all subjective!

I have no more to say.

Summer Show Choice

It has been a difficult decision to choose one image for the  Summer Show at Plymouth College of Art.  I want it to be the right image. Every assignment that I have handed in, over the past two years of the Foundation Degree, have been the wrong choices! I was always told in my Feedback that I had better images in my journal that I should have used as my final images. I feel more pressure this time, the image is going to be exhibited with everyone else's and it has to look professional and photographically excellent. Can I achieve this ..... be positive ..... yes!


I have decided, since it is the end of our two years Foundation Degree, that I will have my image printed at theprintspace at a greater expense than if I had it printed at college. I am having it printed to
30ins x 30ins, Mounted on 3mm Foamex, and with an Acrylic Satin Seal. I hope I've chosen wisely.


All day procrastinating and thinking ... I made my final choice this evening. I felt that the whole story can be told in this image. The story  of ..... chasing the light, the spirit of home, finding something that was lost, being still, listening to the silence, the concepts of duality/opposites, and my intuitive response to memory and seemingly empty but ambiguously mysterious spaces.


This is the culmination of five months work, a book at .http://www.blurb.co.uk/books/3255189....and the image I have chosen for the Summer Show.
