Laugharne weekend 2013

laugharne-wknd
Went back to my home town to do a live painting of Dylan Thomas at the Laugharne Weekend festival. Dylan Thomas because he lived and wrote and drank in Laugharne. There is a Laugharne Weekend for the same reason. Going bigger next year.
Still need to find a photo of the painting finished, the one on the right is as close as I’ve found, but isn’t that close.

G & T magazine


I currently feature over on the Gifted & Talented website. I think they’ve got ‘my’ instead of ‘his’ in the last paragraph, no I didn’t not write it. I never write about myself in the third person, I think you can always tell anyway. mememememememe

I Am Human

So I’ve started my own clothing label called I am Human. There’s just one design so far. The plan is to sell some of these to fund the next one. It’s over here – iamhumanonline.com. You can keep up to date by ‘liking’ here – facebook or ‘following’ here – twitter.

Alright?


Super brief one to apologise for the lack of posting. My excuse is that I’ve been real busy setting up a small clothing label, and if you have missed me there’s quite a chance you’ll be sick of me by the time I’ve finished promoting it. It’s called iamhuman, and there will loads of give aways for those of you who have been patient enough to stick around. Still sampling tees at the moment so enjoy the peace.
Also, I now write monthly over at ArtIsAn Idea , feel a bit of a nob writing about myself, so these posts are going to be heavy on other peoples stuff.

quantum amounts of faith

Mind over matter. Mind not of matter but of the self, I think therefore I cannot pin point an electron. Beauty in the form of an equation I don’t understand. I believe what I am told, from the Krauss, Cox generation of marvelling at the wonder, the story, but when I don’t understand the maths I need faith. I scratch my balls, electrons realign and an order of difference is maintained. Faith in science is where I am at.

I used to lie awake at night asking the question, you know, the question, how is there anything? Deflating inflation, rewinding the expansion and pausing on the moment before, Boom. A ball of massive mass floats in front of me. From the darkness an evolution of misunderstood gods step into the light, waving to me like old men sellers in a Marakeshian souk. I politely refuse and leave with nothing.
I would think conspiracist thoughts of parts of the brain being deliberately turned off, by..? The parts which deal with the enormous and the quantum. Inbuilt brick walls of incomprehension.

One night (21/02/2011), asking the question, the origin, the ball of mass floating, spinning behind my closed eyes, I thought ‘wouldn’t nothing be as strange as something’ and I felt better. My god is me. I exist, I think, therefore you can find me, mathless, skimming over the surface of a lake painted by smiling men of science who exist in a box I bought and plugged in.

structure

Another of the paintings made for The Farm. People ask me what it’s about, I say I don’t know. It’s varnished making it difficult to take a photo without the black shinning. Photos by David.
