What We've Been Up To...

Sorry for the long delay in updates onto the blog...


Zoe has been diligently working on her dollhouse project in San Francisco - we'll have photo's of it up soon.


The "Business Birds" print was made available on our Etsy site, and it sold QUICKLY (only being available for one day.)  It was in an edition of 10, so we'll have another available in the near future.  


Blake was a part of a small show at the GSA called "No White After Labour Day."  It consisted of work made over the summer by fellow Second Year MFA's at the Glasgow School of Art.


For the show, Blake included two portions from his "Truck Driver Series" - "Scene 10: Birdman of Athens, OH" and "Scene 11: Another One"


Also - Blake has been working on his "Saint Lucy" image some more.  He finally got the main image printed, and has added to some of the lines.  Next up is some flocking, and adding of some reflective surfaces.




At the bottom of this post are two more works-in-progress.  Carrying on from the original "Lost Sheep in Glasgow" project, Blake will be printing out one of the photographs Zoe took of him, but the areas of the 'sheep fluff' will be screen printed & flocked (the fluff area was made a bit grey to convey where the added texture is going to be).

MFA Interim Show

The MFA Interim Show at the Glasgow School was last night, and it was a success!

Here are some photographs from last night, as well as the two photographs (including the give-away postcard for people to take) that were used in the exhibition, in addition to the video piece:

"Lost Sheep in Glasgow" (2011); photograph - taken by Zoe Phillips; Blake as Sheep

"Lost Sheep in Glasgow [postcard]" (2011) - Photograph taken by Blake Peterson; Zoe as Sheep

Lost Sheep In Glasgow

Here are the flyers that Blake & Zoe made for the "Lost Sheep in Glasgow" Project.

Blake will be showing the video piece and one photograph from the collaborative series at the Glasgow School of Art's MFA Interim Show.  The opening is this Friday, the 6th of May from 6 - 8 pm; and the show runs until the 14th of May.


Visitors to the exhibition will be able to pick up one of these flyers.

A Sheepish Preview

Blake hesitates before going outside

Like what you see?

These are preview images for another project Blake and Zoe are working on. We're thinking of calling it either 'Lost Sheep in Glasgow' or 'Bad Sheep in Glasgow' depending on how the photos turn out. Today Zoe helped suit up Blake, but as soon as we got out the door, it started to rain. Typical Scotland. Hopefully tomorrow we'll have the first set of images done.
