state of flux saturday 26 march 2016 new website problems if you are looking for my website i have hosting problems because my website is too busy my free hosting people have closed me down wth please bear with while my technical geek swaps me over thank you for the hits posted by claire a baker at 09 38 3 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels claire baker website saturday 5 march 2016 kickstarter and the press i ve been so busy it s untrue probably 500 hours spent on this trip and exhibition tour organisation i ve learned a lot mainly not to lose 5 000 not to be in charge of a budget and not to imagine others to be as passionate about this subject as i am when i talk about the forthcoming chernobyl visit people either say wow or what why you either get it or you don t pripyat apartment block a landing next to a lift shaft in other news after 5 months of trying to source an east german russian looking modernist 70 s armchair reminiscent of those abandoned in many pripyat apartments for under 100 or not i found it impossible actually impossible so i got this the lovely alan of kiwi trading had this one tucked up in his lockup and at a bargain price of course in fact the money that is rattling down the side might actually cover it s cost i ll have to work on it in order for it to become part of my installation but i am aware it could all go horribly wrong and i ll still have to find another chair of the period just english and so our collective now has a name it was a rush job but i am pretty happy with my suggestion i did give the group a multiple choice and they went for this 26 86 collective derived from the date of the chernobyl disaster 26th april 1986 specific yes but it s the single reason we came together after all and it does what it says on the tin so the press have started to take an interest i ve done 2 interviews and a photo shoot with professional people and it s not easy being shy this is the first story to be published a lovely young guy came round http www liveandloveteesside co uk teesside artists explore chernobyl 30 years if you read that you ll notice we ve just started a kickstarter crowdfunding campaign please consider pledging even a small amount as it all mounts up and you may not even need to part with any cash if we don t reach our target which is not looking likely to be honest do it here donate on kickstarter posted by claire a baker at 19 39 1 comment email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels 26 86 collective 70 s vinyl chernobyl kickstarter modernist chair pripyat sunday 21 february 2016 the last part unit no 3 a very delayed post i ve just found this as a draft in my post list from december so i thought i might as well publish it i think i was waiting for a photo to choose itself so now i start the final leg of my ma the final major project and i am extremely excited shall it be the culmination of something i doubt it i truly believe it is only the start this whole experience has changed my life and my outlook on art design creativity and thinking so after a restful weekend spent going to see the lady in a van wrapping christmas presents making special cards and eating chocolate with my feet up behind my new double glazing i actually can t feel the wind in my living room anymore i am ready to start practice 3 this is what i am going to do my rationale is to bring together people place and politics through carrying out work in situ in chernobyl and presenting a video of this as a major piece of work and produce a large scale exhibition piece what once there was working title using life size interior pieces for maximum impact and real human emotiveness which essentially will bridge the gap between space and time between 1986 and now and between the ukraine and here it could be an immersive installation that will intend to convey the emptiness the fear of what has happened there what could happen here allowing the viewer to connect and only imagine loss of this magnitude this is how i am getting on i e not well it could be a major waste of time disaster but who knows what will happen before i finish it it is by working on it that i am generating new ideas all the time via giphy posted by claire a baker at 13 43 1 comment email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels chernobyl fmp installation ma mmu saturday 16 january 2016 a process of technicalities eliminations and refinements after sampling both paper and fabric layers negative techniques and the idea of suggestion rather than purely figurative imagery textural surfaces after trying to fight against this as well as colourways i am investigating more with printing with plaster if i m doing texture i might as well go for it using the piece of work below as a starting point alongside fresh photographic imagery of interior walls in chernobyl don t let history repeat itself technical issues successes and the way forward 15t mesh on coloured waste paper background part pattern very effective with abstract ground on paper residue from mixing plaster with procien dye the dye seeps through in parts and the plaster sits in other areas palette knifed on now what to do with it posted by claire a baker at 11 37 no comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest

about absconding to wordpress as i am so annoyed that these images are now not the same size even though i resized them on photoshop especially what tut posted by claire a baker at 23 00 no comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels fabric paper print sketchbook texture friday 11 december 2015 show and tell time a very handy pinboard with censored lengths i have been quite stressed somewhat or rather what comes with being mentally busy preparing for hand in today was slightly fraught to say the least other things were determined to get in the way but i eventually got there minus 2 x a2 paintings that strangely have disappeared off the face of the earth no doubt i shall find them tomorrow maybe it was a sign bound to be writing i have less practical work this time more thinking and focusing though and there is still a way to go sampling experimenting refining repeating ad infinitum and only then producing final pieces pantone colour for 2016 today i had to present my work i had a plan but as is usual it went by the wayside once i started rabbiting as sometimes i am wont to do i managed to continue to speak for a good 20 minutes and for someone as quiet as me i think that s an achievement and i only slightly filled up with the emotion of my subject once i said all i had to say another achievement as usually i m kicking myself for missing out that all important crucial word although one will probably come to me later anyway i feel good worn out raised pile and i have big idea s i will tell you more them next week ciao p s i
