Hellenic Bridal Gown Laden with Bills

was one of the artworks displayed in the tenty gazebo thing named the OO2 Mammarium which had its first outing at the Forest Gate Festival where I bought a clock made from a CD called ‘OO Heaven’ which seemed auspicious. Phew! If you’re breathless after reading that sentence you should’ve seen us on Saturday carrying the Hellenic Bridal Gown Laden with Bills. We don’t have the room or strength to display all of the artworks so they’ll have to wait their turn- although I’ll have to create a catalogue to remind us of what we’ve got. While I was away last week at a fantastic Arvon course I challenged myself to write an enigmatic title for each piece using only 6 words- hence the title of this blog. After I’d amused myself to the point of smugness coming up with such things as ‘A Hug  of Felted Milk Ducts’ and ‘Trauma Soup of Disrupted DNA Strands’, I realised  I should have used 8 or 9 words to signify the ratio 1:8 so I’ve started again…but this time it will have the theme of a spa treatments menu. (Although I like my reasoning, I wonder why I can’t simply write some labels with title & artist on them. There’s still so much to do and so little time! And now I have to fix ‘Pink Fluffy Spacecraft Heading for Nebula, Mr Spock Advising’  and ‘Halter Neck Top of Lymph Nodes and Beaded Reminders’ as well as design and make T Shirts that grumpy teens will deign to wear on the OO2 Catwalk…
