This weekend we came together at The Whiskey Bond in Glasgow. Kindly hosting us were Agile City, a non-profit community interest company based in Speirs Locks, North Glasgow.
​
A weekend of workshops began with Jamie Crewe and their 5 techniques of working. 💪 'In this artist's talk I speak about five creative techniques embodied in my recent practice. These are titled: ‘Milk, Curdling, Mould’, ‘High Walls’, ‘Embrace and Shove’, ‘Cacophony’, and ‘Daphnê’. Identified across many different works, these techniques thread through my practice, appearing repeatedly as intellectual, practical, processual, or instinctual gestures. Through reading my work in this way I try to draw a non-chronological portrait of my practice; I encourage sensitivity to recurrence, and to the folding together of thought and practice.'
This was followed by a workshop led by our own Harriet Morley, and ending with a Sunday afternoon zine making workshop. Check out our zine here. Thank you for having us Glasgow. It was truly magical!
A special thank you to SET, who hosted us for the first class of 2019 meet up in London. We unpicked 'structurelessness', delved into each other's varied practices and sewed the seeds for some exciting plans in Glasgow in just over a month's time. Thank you to London's art scene for being so welcoming and hospitable!
JAMES ST FINDLAY
James' practice exists as a coagulated, sloppy wet mess of music, writing, drawing, performance and occasionally throwing his long body around a bit. Currently (and without good reason) London based but with Scottish blood. He joined SOTD out of perverse curiosity and as a means of catalysing regular new work.
