I'll be Your Mirror


The latest show at Transition is I'll be Your Mirror by Emma Talbot. It features a group of paintings inspired by the magazine collection at The Women's Library in Whitechapel, London. Emma has also made an animation inspired by graphic love stories which takes the form of a little book with the drawings floating across the pages and dissapearing down the spine.

The image below is one of the paintings in the show which seems to be a favourite with a lot of the audience and is called Leathers.

The show is on until May 1, you can read more on the Transition website. Also don't miss the fab publication that goes with the show with Martin Coomer interviewing Emma and an essay by Rebecca Loncraine.

San Sebastian


I went to San Sebastian last week to talk at a seminar called 'Mutations in Feminism'. Everyone was very nice and I got shown around the town - here is a snap showing pollarded trees and the 'Belle Epoque' roundabout.
