"Trinity #19 - Jones Road Readymade"

Here's another readymade from The Trinity Series. Since I have more than one proposal to assemble and submit for calls requesting works of public art, do forgive the hit and run posts this week.

"Selfportrait of the Artist as a Silhouette"

It's been a while since posting an image from this series and you may recall hearing similar sentiments on Saturday when speaking of the dry spell between images in The Mister Existence Series. I have another one ready too, but will wait until a day when I need to go to the well. I'm a bit tired and short on time since construction of the Kings Court Cube began today. You can have a sneak peek at the effort at No Matter What Shape.

Spinning out of control -

"Her Red Dress Reflected in the Lid of a Can"

I'll just say that I'm firmly in my seat, buckled up and ready for whatever crazy turns are coming my way. Life is a bit unsettling lately with a funded sculpture to produce, a handful of public art proposals on the table and more than that to get to. I haven't settled into any regular rhythm of accomplishing the new tasks and fully expect that a few more successes, along with a more discerning eye toward what I should be doing, will help in that regard. So, spinning out of control? Kinda, sorta, maybe.

"Selfportrait of the Artist as a Newspaper Feature"
digital collage by Mick Mather

Not a lot to say about today's image other than it seems to fit in with recent posts dealing with a number of public art projects and future development. Here we have Rick Destito (on the left) who fabricated my design for The Dart that I've spoken about here and at No Matter What Shape - early and often. It's another long day with a Community Development meeting at the end of it ... I need a cocktail already!

"Dark Thoughts"
montage by Mick Mather

Sometimes the pieces that result from this series have a will of their own and they simply appear at some point during assembly. I was really just fiddling about last night, not particularly expecting anything worthwhile, when the image took charge and, honest, finished itself. Okay, okay...so I did a little more tweaking and layering, but you know what I mean. Anyway, I'm posting rather early in the day since I'll be serving on a Public Art Panel later this evening and won't have any time to create let alone chat. I hope to have more to say about this Public Art project, especially since one of the sculptures is my design and it was installed over the weekend. What? You demand to see it now? Alright, you'll find the details and two photos here. Just the pics, please? Okay, go here.
