The Ice House, Helmsdale’s monumental deep freeze. Once a store for salmon catch, later a coal fired fish and chip shop. TimeSpan’s artist in residence and youth arts curator Ruth Macdougall has commissioned Chilean video artist Yael Rosenblut and myself to research and respond to the Ice House. The resulting work will constitute a double sited installation inside the ice house and in Timespan Gallery from 4July to 2nd Aug 2009. Read Scottish Art critic  Giles Sutherland’s review of the exhibition.

Dr Park, Senior Lecturer in Molecular Biology, University of Surrey, and Dr Caterina Albano, Research fellow and Curator for ArtAkt, The Innovation Centre, Central St Martins and I will be collaborating in researching the bacterial communication and light producing properties of P. phosphoreum outside of the usual confines of purely practical scientific practice and developing a body of work based on less traditionally scientific quantifiable attributes; an alternative data collection based on subjectivity, emotion, playfulness and instinctive human enquiry.
