It was great to hear about updates on four of the Nine Trades of Dundee artists' projects last night and to make a few introductions across the group.
Pippa Koszerek - had a productive week in Dundee and one of the things she has been focussing on with the secretaries she's working with is shorthand. It truely looks like a beautiful, elegant code and Pippa has been instructed how to write her name. She is also working with the graph and data presentation imagery that the secretaries use every day and following up on how to make this 3D and present within some of the office locations.
David Yu - has arrived in Dundee after another residency in Nigeria (yes I think that there is severe aclimatisation to occur yet). He is working with 6-8 bars and clubs around town and got a warm welcome back from some of the publicans he has been in touch with since his scoping visit in January.
Chris Dyson - this has been a busy time for Chris as he prepares for our biggest event yet, a secret staff-only Drive In Movie event. It will be 1950's themed to fit with the film Grease which was selected by the workers at the factory where Chris is based.
Fraser MacDonald - Fraser has been continuing his work at Friarton Recycling Depot and has several visits in the pipeline. We are hoping that these will include visits from an educational group from Scottish Natural Heritage and a special visit from one of Ange Taggart's workers groups from Dundee Central Library. I thoroughly reccommend a visit to the site, so I know that they will enjoy it.
see more about their projects and the other Nine Trades of Dundee artists on the blogs listed to the right of this page.
