Webs revisited

[devi]

Hello again Livejournal! This is what all that what-are-you-thinking-about stuff earlier this year was in aid of:



I have an exhibition, starting on Sunday 4th October, in a vacant shop in Templars Square mall in East Oxford, along with 17 other local artists (that number keeps changing) as part of The Oxford Empty Spaces Project. It features the results of my livejournal survey turned into a big hanging structure made of string and wire, plus some more normal pieces of artwork hanging on the wall. All the details are here.

Come and see! Or come to the launch party on Saturday 10th! Party start time's not settled but there will definitely be one (the organisers are a bit Tony-Wilson-ish, all "no rules! whatever! do what you want!", so I have DECREED that there will be a launch party), perhaps moving on to the Marsh Harrier when the shopping centre closes.

I'll be invigilating at the exhibition quite a lot over its run - if you let me know you're coming, I can give you the guided tour.

Big thanks to everyone who contributed. And especially to secretrebel, who put me in touch with the TOES people.

(Please excuse half-made state of website, obligatory art-wanky blurbage, and simultaneous LJ/facebook/twitter spamming. That's it for now.)

all i can see is a little red cross. in a way i hope this is what the art is, but in another way, i rather hope it is a bit more than that :)

good DECREEING there though anyway! will definitely try and come up at some point (i seem to only ever come up to ox for reasons of seeing art these days...)

Ooh, awesome!

This sort of thing is the coolest thing in the world right now, since Bruce Sterling's been blogging about it.

Sounds great. I will be along to have a look sometime.

Sadly am v unlikely to make it for the party (at least I hope not, b/c if I am not able to make it, it will be due to imminent DOG which I hope is actually going to happen!), but will try v hard to make it down for another time.

um. let me know when you're invigilating, maybe sometime in the November time, and I can sort out a visit? (scheduling things is good if poss. scheduled things happen.)

also: ART. aces.

oh noes, Octoberists birthday drinks in on the 10th too! How long does the exhibition run for?

Great! People are trying to get a similar thing in the empty shops here, but no joy yet.

I'm not going to be able to make the 10th, but am in Ox at the end of the month -- will it still be around?
