I am always entering competitions in the hope of being seen, winning something, selling something. If the work is selected, it's something to put on the CV.I've always had a proprietorial feeling about this one as it is held at the Tweed Regional Gallery and is near Brisbane. I used to visit whenever it was on and always knew lots of people who had entered. However, I never thought to enter myself until now. Why? I just didn't enter any competitions back then.
Anyway, here is a picture of my "Boxed Set", which is a set of eleven pamphlet books, all made from heavily overprinted etchings and relief prints. It was a huge amount of work, and there's only one. It's a mad way to work, but I really enjoyed making it, and felt a lot of satisfaction upon its completion.
I'm really excited to see this blog start!!!
ReplyDeleteWill put you in my favorites.
Love the work here. Jo
Great work Bron! Can't wait to see it in person :)
ReplyDeleteHI Bron,
ReplyDeleteYour work looks good - probably would of benefited from a close up or two.
Having seen these books in the flesh - the tactile quality is a sensational experience - not sure how this electronic medium could ever convey that experience.
I wish you well in the comp
Best Regards
Anthony
