Projects I never got around to; jobs I never applied for

They are the essence of my practice. They describe what I would do if I had more hours in the day, more energy, enthusiasm, organisation, time, money etc. Or perhaps my creativity is subsumed in excuses. Or this is the concrete reflection of all else that is impossible, whether it's vacuuming or preparing for a PhD.

illumini

Dead line: Extended15th March 2010
Illumini Event Sep 2008, attracted over 3,000 people on its opening night and 7,145 guests during its two weeks. Artists, from professionals to students, gained commissions, sales and major press coverage.
Applications are invited from artists of all disciplines. To exhibit in ‘Secret Subterranean London’ at Shoreditch Town Hall basement London, starting from the 9th Sept 2010 for 1 week
Have you ever wondered what secret tunnels and buildings are hidden under the city streets?
Illumini Event 2010 will be held in an underground rustic location in East London, and promises to be an exciting and historical look into the history of the secret underground city. The old rustic subterranean dark labyrinth, with its many rooms, alleyways and cells, will be transformed into several areas of historical underground London, eg: world war bunkers, disused station, crypts, historical water ways and many more, long forgotten hidden secrets of London..
Sculptures & prop makers
The venue for the event will be divided into zones. Each zone will represent a special hidden underground London location. We are looking for artist’s that can recreate and set a scene, at the venue, by adding props and sculpture to recreate these long forgotten historical spaces. Artists will transform the space to take the viewer back in time .Leaving a perfect platform for Illuminating art works to be displayed along side their work.
Artist’s that use light/illumination in their art work
Artist’s whose work or part of their work illuminates, or lights up in some way. This can be from the way it is displayed; e.g, projection, TV screens etc, or incorporating lighting into the actual artwork in some way - neon, LED’S , EL wire & panels, glow products & paint etc. If your work glows or lights up we want to hear from you.
