@Osiefish Aye. Coffee alternatives that don't induce anxiety would be amazing for this carcass

You know you've got good mates when you ask if they have any severed hands lying around. Bonus watch too

@Osiefish @bouphe I hope he doesn't go the same way as the jolly Roger flag....although some like that sort of thing 😋

I've spent 8 wonderful weeks working for @equal_arts with one of their community groups in Gateshead. They've been learning various glass techniques whilst making items for a Christmas market at @theshipley
It's on tomorrow if you need some locally made Christmas gifts

A giant leap forward today. Finally got propane installed and the torch running smoothly after what seems like an age....

Dan Flavin's neon sculptures saturate @Gagosian with ambient coloured light – reshaping viewers' perceptions of space.

The two fluorescent tube pieces are on view until 23 December. https://t.co/3KP8FryQNh

Hopefully the key to a pandemic proof studio to continue flameworking.

Post-grad studies have been on hold since the pandemic hit. It's been tough to lose a creative space completely but I remain upbeat about the prospect of reclaiming a new working space for myself.

Berlin Nights

Niklas Soestmeyer’s atmospheric images capture a sense of urban alienation, loneliness and dislocation.

Neon signs and advertising provide a roadmap on a journey through the city.
