{Up she goes.}
Come the end of the year Imp will be closing its doors as a gallery space after two and a half chiefly charm-filled years. Before doing so there is time for one final fling before curtain call, one group exhibition The Last Hurrah!, one last yippee before the caravan rolls in the direction of new things.
Louise and I have two collaborative works in the show, and one work each made without assistance from the other save for idea. My Mum also has a drawing in the show. Her New Orleans sock monkeys, Heathcliff and Cathy, hang alongside three bears full of racy and lusty thoughts.
Welcomed to help join Jurate, Brita and Emily with the install, lj and I happily accepted. With small wooden spirit level, a ball of string, a few nails to hold good a string line and a handful of silver pins the show was hung. A hot and windy day, the late afternoon offered the thrill of hailstones, large hailstones falling with the downpour. We closed the windows that had previously been flung wide and watched those little white stones as they ricocheted off every surface and landed with a thud on the rooftops of the cars parked below.
{Heathcliff and Cathy plan disturbance. Pencil drawing by Elaine Haby, my Mum.}
{A little arsenic, graphite and chalcopyrite grow from my armpits if I don't move too often. A pen, pencil and collage work by me.}
{Reflecting something entirely other. Louise's version which hangs above it, all luminous and soft.}
{Hoping not to collide AND Vessel additions. Two collaborative pieces by us.}

As is my way, I neglected to take any photos of the opening festivities. You’ll need to use your imagination for that one. You will, however, find additional tiny views elsewhere.
+ Fanja has a shop update this Monday for those of you looking for a little beauty to start your December.
