A JAMES PADDOCK IDEA
Way back at the start of lockdown I put in a proposal for the city of culture 2025 bid to project onto the Southampton city walls. So hear it is. I was a little concerned about the surface , but seems to work fine. I would really like to see my concept go large scale, now that really would be celebratory ! I’m hoping they’ll use my ideas for improving arts engagement and education too.

Five to watch.
It’s always nice when an older artwork is mentioned in a new article; thank you axisweb for refocusing on Lost Person, 2018. It’s good to be featured among some great artists dealing with mental health.
