A Few weeks back I traveled to Le Havre in France for the third edition of the Bi-annual Festival of Contemporary Art. As well as seeing some brilliant work by various artist such as Jochen Gerner, Christophe Blanc and Frederick Magazine I was also very happy to recieve the second Partouche Prize for experimental film for my animation 'Outside the Box'.
I'd like to say thank you to everyone involved in the festival and sorry for being so terrible at speaking french, here's a stupid picture of me.
A few weekends ago me, alice moloney, paddy molloy, mike redmond, dan frost and mark el khatib were asked by Tate Britain to draw peoples portraits at the Big Chill festival. We decided, instead of drawing, to use rubber stamps instead. You can find more of the portraits here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/bravenewface/
The Lost Coin, Outside The Box and The Colouring, were screened at this years Berlin based character animation festival Pictoplasma. If you like what you see there is a DVD available with over 3 hours of selected work.
