I was nominated for the Paul Hamlyn Foundation Award – the award ceremony was this evening… I didn’t get it. And to round things off I even managed to miss the award ceremony because my train back from Paris was cancelled… It would have been nice to meet the PH Foundation staff who have all been so lovely throughout the process, as well as the other nominated artists.
Thank you so much to the anonymous nominator who nominated me – if you are reading this…! I’m grateful and touched by these signs that people believe in and are compelled by what I do. I did a good job on the application I think! 🙂 – a process which really brought into focus how significant a difference this kind of support might have made to the development of my work.
That said – warmest congrats and respect to all the other artists in the running tonight.
Solidarity, strength and love to all.
Onwards!
