The Stampopolis Post

~long awaited~ Stampopolis post ;) on 14th April (my birthday!) myself and some of Art School Disco  took part in Urbandsey, a pop up exhibition at The Vibe gallery in Bermondsey, around the theme of 'Urban'.
My contribution was a 3m x 1.5m (almost)blank canvas for visitors to contribute to and build a city. I carved around 20 rubber stamps, allowing them to be put together in near-infinite combinations to make the elements of a city.
I started off the city centre at home, as documented in the below video:

my lovely husband helped me with the videos. superstar! below is some rough sheets i used to clean off the inks..

 I was very lucky that there were (at least!) 3 fantastic photographers at the show, who got some great snaps of the city growing.

Below: 3 photos by Miles Dell, including my /stamp-station/ (read: table i found in a bin)

Below: great snaps by Mike Brown. i was amazed at how many people interacted with the art!

Below 2 photos are by KLV who also took part in the show!

and finally, a fab video of the show!

10 minutes

i hope you'll excuse my lack of blogposts in the last month. we kinda went and got married. i don't know how much i'm gonna post about it (there's so much to say, so many people to thank, so many lovely photos and wonderful gifts) and i don't want to favour some photos, stories, gifts, over others. so i'll leave you with this little video, which sums up the day in about 10 minutes, and promise that i'll get back to blogging, interacting, selling and creating soon. soon!
