I am pleased to announce the forthcoming bookwork ‘that is, these scenes’, commissioned and published by mac (Midlands Arts Centre), which will be made available over the next twelve months.
In June 2010 the first of 12 booklets will be released, under the series title ‘Miscellaneous Leaflets’.
The Miscellaneous Leaflets project takes its name from one of only a few British Library holdings relating to mac – a disparate collection of brightly coloured pamphlets tied together with string.
This series gathers interpretations of photographs found in the mac archive and returns them to the public realm. The leaflets are distributed in a limited edition of 1500, each finding its meaning in Birmingham through forums such as bus routes, community centres, and libraries.
Titles will include contributions from Derek Bishton (one founder of Ten.8), Dawn Pereira (writer on the public sculptures of William Mitchell), Fiona Tait (Birmingham Archives), Catherine Fehily & Kate Newton (IRIS Women’s Photography Project and Staffordshire University), James Yarker (Stan’s Cafe), Jonathan P. Watts (YH485 Press) amongst others.
More information can be found on the project blog.
Extract: The curtain is drawn, and the projector is switched on. There is a whirring sound, and the door closes as though by itself. In this sealed vessel one of the participants swims in to focus; she is immersed in an aperture of light.

The publication will be presented at London College of Communication on June 3rd 2010, and will be launched later this year with a further exhibition. It is supported by the BFI.
The Birmingham Nature Centre School Classroom, 2010
The Midlands Arts Centre reopens this weekend after a two year period of building work and renovation. I have been working on a commission during this period which will be announced early next month. A bookwork and exhibition at the centre will follow later this year. It is supported by National Lottery through Arts Council England and Birmingham City Council.
Images from A Study In Grey were featured in the University of Westminster’s Alumni Exhibition Biografica, which opened at the Piramal Gallery in the The National Centre for Performing Arts in South Bombay, India on the 14th of September 2009.
