Artful response

April 20, 2022April 22, 2022 / Becadroit / Leave a comment

A link to a new poem published today, thanks to The Ekphrastic Review @ekphrasticrev + some thoughts about writing in response to art.

March in April

Why not review 2019's Little Women and draw out half formed ideas about ambition, art, and other stuff.

Some words, a little art, and me

March 2, 2022 / Becadroit / Leave a comment

Here's a version of me contemplating a different version of me featured in a special @InkPantry interview, about writing, art, and, um…a version of me.

2020: too novel?

June 11, 2020July 16, 2020 / Becadroit / Leave a comment

A year ago the most ludicrous thing I didn't have to imagine was a petition launched in the UK for a ban on the teaching of Arabic numerals. I thought it was some kind of stunt, but the woman responsible believed numbers were some kind of new fangled way to, I don't know, get whatever … Continue reading 2020: too novel?

Labyrinth of shadows

May 23, 2020May 24, 2020 / Becadroit / Leave a comment

Art galleries are closed, in this year of 2020-Covid-19. It has presented opportunities to visit virtual exhibitions at galleries and museums around the world. Bendigo Art Gallery and Beinart Gallery are two I've had a peek at online. In less plague-ridden times, I visit art as often as I can, usually in spaces designed for … Continue reading Labyrinth of shadows

Remnants of paradise

March 3, 2019March 5, 2019 / Becadroit / Leave a comment

The National Gallery of Victoria is currently exhibiting their collection of Felton Bequest images of scenes from Rajput courts. They are intimate and symbolic, and from 2019 there is something timeless about them, even though many of the paintings depict historical events and individuals. I think this has to do with context, some of the … Continue reading Remnants of paradise

Review: Compare the pear

January 29, 2019January 30, 2019 / Becadroit / Leave a comment

I left it a bit late to see Baldessin / Whiteley Parallel Visions at the National Gallery of Victoria but I made it at the last minute and was pleasantly surprised. I won't go into a huge amount of detail about every work. Nor will I deliver much on the background of George Baldessin or … Continue reading Review: Compare the pear

October: it’s a wrap

November 1, 2018 / Becadroit / Leave a comment

Often I feel like I'm not achieving enough. Days contain all sorts of things that need to be done, but there's not enough structure. Meanwhile, sleeping has been extremely absent, which means some fuzzy thinking and fatigue. Is there such a thing as Seasonal Affective Disorder for spring? Whatever it is, my head hurts. Yet, … Continue reading October: it’s a wrap

Starting something

October 19, 2018 / Becadroit / Leave a comment

I didn't mean to, but I started something. I have an Instagram account, and it's mostly full of sunsets, art, and visually arresting things (and puns) and now RedBubble promotions. I don't really use Insta for writing related efforts. This week I started to. It's been both frustrating and creatively fulfilling. After endlessly tinkering with … Continue reading Starting something

Architecture of fire

August 23, 2018August 23, 2018 / Becadroit / Leave a comment

The Common Campfire is an interactive, responsive light installation by Adam Grant, whose previous creative endeavours include Jafflechutes and This Bike Has MS. This particular work appeared under the auspices of Test Sites, a City of Melbourne support program for interdisciplinary artists to develop and share works with the community. But enough facts. This is … Continue reading Architecture of fire
