Plans are afoot following meetings and discussions so there is a call for interest for the following:
Mentoring sessions with Martin Everett - this will be in the lead up to the October interim show to provide members with the chance to develop work-in-progress, to discuss ideas and share thoughts in a supportive and constructive forum. These are anticipated to start in August with follow up sessions in September and October. A total of 5 x 2 hour sessions will run in Hastings. This would be at a cost of £50 for the whole series of sessions. Grace is keen to hear from anyone who is interested so that times and dates can be set. Please contact Grace for more information and to book a space.
Martin is an internationally exhibited fine art photographer who's work deals with themes of absence/presence in haunting images of spaces rid of human presence. His recent work using light boxes was shown at F_ISH as part of the photo fringe and later went to Manifesta 8, Murcia. They have since become part of the permanent collection in the Musee de la Santa Eullalia, Murcia. 'Before and After Science i and ii' were shown at Towner as part of East Sussex Open, from work made at Herstmonceux Observatory. Martin is currently undertaking a practice based PhD at Queen Mary University and he continues to work with the National Trust and Alzheimers Society. Video of Martin's recent talk can be found here to hear more. Martin has a wealth of experience and expertise and the mentoring sessions are a great opportunity to be able to draw on this in a supportive environment.
Talks are also planned and suggestions for speakers and topics are welcomed, Stuart Griffiths will talk about his work and forthcoming publication - a date for which will be announced soon. Other suggestions have included topics of professionalism and how to apply for funding. Please get in touch to let us know what you want to hear more on.
