Love





In a landless night
Did you feel the fright
Of the age that wasn't
Could never be
So we hold it close
When we feel the most
Like a love that we could not leave behind
We turn the wheel
To which way we feel
Till our thoughts drift
I can not find you there
Don't forget the nights when it all felt right
Are you not the same as you used to be
Used to be

A mixture of the sorrow and the joy we all encounter in our lives.

a memoir of old age, alzheimers, dying and death.

Pink Houses



who lives in a house like this? imagine if you were on the ground floor, close to the water and partially hidden by the bridge. i'd say it's pretty cool.

March 17th



in theory st patrick's day was a great opportunity to get some fantastic photographs, but in reality it was horrendous. drunken louts throwing themselves on you, screaming "take my picture. take my picture!!". yes, i'm dying to take your picture, you with vomit and food stains all down your shirt. on second thoughts maybe i should have.

Window display



a photograph to make anyone giggle. it's nice to see a little bit of humour in a shop window when the display is being changed. remember, no peeking!

Ryanair



i laughed so much when i looked out the window of a plane last week and caught sight of this little sign on the wing. do people really need to be told that they are not permitted onto the plane's wing? i stopped laughing pretty quick when the plane almost nose-dived onto the runway in Prestwick.

Marina Abramovic








A very strange lady altogether! Abramović's work explores the relationship between performer and audience. Who else would place upon a table 72 objects that people were allowed to use (on her) in any way that they chose? Some of these were objects that could give pleasure, while others could be wielded to inflict pain, or to harm her. Among them were scissors, a knife, a whip, and, most notoriously, a gun and a single bullet. For six hours the artist allowed the audience members to manipulate her body and actions.

Jenny Holzer




Since the 1970's, Holzer's use of linguistics has been the primary focus in her artwork, making profound statements and slogans through vehicles commonly used in advertising, such as electric billboards, LED and xenon projections and TV commercials. These simple declarative sentences, usually in capital letters, appear anonymously in urban spaces containing surprising, startling, unprotected and often not too pleasant messages of political, social and cultural content. Holzer's ability to transform statements on topical subject matters such as war, violence, racism and death into an aesthetic presence is well amazing!
