Vernon Monument I wanted to see how a diver’s dry suit looked under water. Dear friend @antoniaschusterart found a secluded swimming pool and my son agreed to go in while I photographed him with an underwater camera. The results were spot on. The old navy dry suit though had a hole in it and Gil started to sink as it filled with water. Didn’t put him off though - just kept getting in and out and emptying in between takes. My pride in my son verges on the unhinged. #vernonmonument #drysuit #clearancedivers
Vernon Monument - early stages 2019 - to arrive at the composition I transposed the twisty body feelings I’d had on the ropes into maquettes like this. #vernonmonument @gunwharfquays #maquettes #clearancedivers @royalnavy
7 years ago - as part of the prep for making the Vernon Monument I contorted myself into scuba-diving positions to feel how my body might twist to hold balance. #vernonmonument @markrichardssculpture@gunwharfquays
Good to give the boards their first outing the year. This time with a group of dynamic leafleteers as part of Presteigne & Norton’s bid to become Uk Town of Culture 2028, the steering group have created a survey to discover what we’d all like this to consist of. Presteigne residents - should be able to access the survey by scanning the first picture here. Takes 5 minutes and it’s got to be in by midnight this Wednesday.
Loved the ladies who lunched and scanned. #presteigne #presteigne&nortonbid #townofculture2028 #sandwichboardman Photos @alexramsayphoto
Yesterday I went to a cinema to see The Voice of Hind Rajab. I have never, ever seen an audience in such shock after a screening. As we made our way out, I noticed that no one met another’s eyes. For me, it was because felt anger, and I felt shame.#hindrajab

Thank you Team Telekinesis in the studio today. Only the poetry sensor was connected so it was hard to detect vertical movement. However I felt a murmur. @shortladywithdarkhair #telekinesis #teamtelekinesis @oneislandmanyvisions
