LOST: 17 March 2011 in London
Putting out a notice as one would do for a lost pet in the neighborhood. Well fashion sympathetic, social media crew here's the deal....
Vanishing last Thursday between the IP solicitor's in Moorgate and meeting the developers at The Hospital Club this silk scarf has pulled a runner!
So much for double knotting adornment to a classic Mulberry Elgin tote
Please if you have found it, a return would be greatly appreciated.
On the up, at least I've still got my grandmother for awhile longer even though I seem to keep loosing her gifts.
Oddly, this footage is from a movement study last year on textiles.

journey
hello, my name is suave, rico suave and i'm the bloke who passes on the way in everyday.
i wear black italian made suits with little pocket hankies and brown brogues. sometimes i carry a brolly but today is your lucky day...
nice to bump into you ladies and gentlemen, i am the fattie who takes up half of your seat. yes, i know i should pay for two seats, but i'm too cheap as i waste all my dosh on crisps and whispa delights. have you seen that women who races the buses, she's mad i tell you.
this is serious, serious business people and i'm running late. the world will stop without me, never mind if i nearly knock you over, i'm far more important than the likes of you.
oi oi now please i've got something to say and i'm going to say it loud.
oh how i flow in the traffic, weaving in and out of the obstacles, defying walking patterns. i'm as light as a feather, only kate is thinner, my spirits are high and the air is much clearer where i stand.
i am the mother and you will do as i tell you. i will build you up when you are down and show you failure is your greatest success, together you will learn to learn.
and the faces of this shadow dance, revealed...
there is one, one with feet on the ground and head in the clouds, casting BLANK (insert here).
a different perspective.
play.

Bloody Eureka!
Drip, 2008
States of Limbo, 2007
Svayambh, 2007
Basically, Anish Kapoor is at the forefront of my inspiration. Period.
Finding significant colour inspiration from his works, enjoying the monotone pop contrast. A mathematical function preserving given order with a hint of disarray.
Anish Kapoor (born Bombay, 1954) has been a native Londoner since the early 70s. He studied at Hornsey College of Art and Chelsea School of Art Design. http://www.anishkapoor.com/
