Black lights

Excited about the exhibition tomorrow night at uni. I am going in this arvo to make sure it is all running smoothly. It would be terrible if one of the fluoro tubes stopped working on the night!!

But i still don't know what I'm here for

The photos really don't do it justice. you will have to come to the graduation exhibition on Wednesday night at QCA.

The black hole

Setting up yesterday was pretty easy, when I actually got some help. After 3 hours of waiting around, Andrew who had nothing to do with the building of my hallway and didn't need to do it, offered to help. He was a superstar! and Mostyn my lecturer got it all happening. He's the best!

Now my hallway is constructed. It is 3.5m long, 2.4m high and about 1.5m wide. It cost quite a lot and took a bit of extra effort, but I am thinking it was totally worth it.

This isn't even being marked on my assessment! I am doing this just for the graduation exhibition because I wanted to. I THINK I AM GOING CRAZY! hahaha. I could have made it so much easier by just hanging my big paintings but I wouldn't have been as happy with the outcome.

Today i am putting in the black lights, the roofing and installing the paintings. I am thinking about painting the floor black but I will see what happens.

I didn't think it would get done yesterday and was preparing myself to not be included in the exhibition. The last week has been really full on and draining and it looks like it will end positively which is great.

Busy! no time for rest, yet...

Went into uni today to see what i should do for our end of year exhibition. Looks like I will be setting up all day friday. I hope i can get the time off work without any problems...

Post critique blues

Got the post critique blues...

I have still got work to do for the end of year exhibition but i have been feeling increasingly down the last week. After seeing the rainbow I felt better :-) it was a sign from the universe. hahaha

Today I finished painting the panels that make up my false hallway for the end of year exhibition. there are 6 side panels and the front panel below. i just have to get my fluoros tested and tagged and make some curtains. Hopefully it will look fabulous. I have put so much work into it (and money).

I just typed in depression as a tag and it says it is mis-spelt...

and now it isn't

it's just trying to make me feel better...

I'm in with the out crowd

Sick

Well uni is pretty much over for the year and I am now sick, just as my part time job gets busier and i still have construction work to do on my hallway for the end of year exhibition. it was inevitable really. I have been willing myself not to get sick as I just didn't have time for it. Only about two more weeks of stress to go :-) and then I can have a short break before I start reading up on psychogeography for next year.
