While I was being kept busy in the summer my dear London friends haven't been sitting on their hands either. First of all, our illustrators & creative writers gang
Beddow 'n Battini has been showcasing our 100 Word Pilgrimage all over London, dividing our pieces between four different locations. Apart from that, Tatiana submitted my Rotherhithe piece to the
Aurasma competition, which made it to the final round! If you'd like to support me, you can vote for it

Additionally to these exhibitions,
Tatiana and
Wumi have produces three big-scale pieces of street art!
Meanwhile, the
OSA collective, which I am also part of, has had a critical media exhibition in the spacious and light Hart Lane Studios.
The Open Systems Association is an allotment society for the critically curious and the technologically disaffected. OSA's approach and methodology are quite unique, as we have both a practical and a theoretical background. While working on our projects, we conduct academic as well as practice-based research, which feeds into the critical substance of the artwork. Generally, we are very curious about the process of investigation itself, including its cultural, social and political notions, rather than in the finished and sealed representation of the accomplished work. The June exhibition is called
Everything But the Kitchen, which is a cultural lab articulated as a radical
kitchen space. Seven units house critical experiments where members of
the public can plug into bodies and their processes, approaching
critical thinking and technological tinkering from the perspective of
physical engagement. shift once our nipples are connected through suction to another body?
How does time materialise in a physical database of chopped, organised

grinding corn kernels? (
