ABOUT

Also, interesting (?) development. I’m going through a dark phase. Wearing an unusual-for-me amount of black. Also wearing gold v silver costume jewellery for the first time in my life. I blame Jared Leto. Velvet. Need more velvet*. I’ve been low level migraining all week. Committed to a 100% screen-free day yesterday to give my senses a rest. Instead of watching flickering lights on telly in the evening, we played boardgames. I won The Game of Life by amassing a fortune of more than £600k in under 2 hours. Tried today to use my money to pay my credit card bill. Barclaycard said they don’t accept Game of Life money. I’ve received similar responses from other companies and even some online shops. I mean, what’s the point? It’s nice to feel the sun on yer bum. My work room is transforming. I’m transforming it. I have clean white walls now. Clean, aside from the cracks and bubbles in the building, the odd greasy blu tac mark that just won’t cover. I have a black stripe now too. That’s new. Black tape on the picture rail brings an unexpected amount of joy, wow. I framed the greenhouse collage I made and then I printed out photographs of Chris Kraus and Eileen Myles off the internet and sat them on the bit of stripe directly above my desk. They’re supervising. P.S And yes, I got to take my lamp friend home from my office at The Standard, London. He was lonely. My very, very favourite napkin from the day-long prop house pick? Didn’t even use it 🤷🏻‍♀️ First job of the year going well. I miss the Christmas tree. Just so you know, this is the spirit in which I intend to confront 2021. Happy new year, everyone! X What would make an already super-fun food shoot with @garryjmaclennan at @yauatchacity *even* better? I’ll tell you what. Delicious dim sum lunch + a mountain of take-home pudding swag, that’s what. Here’s where @art2chef makes the culinary magic happen 🥟🍤🍧
