Robert Montgomery - Light Poems

November 20, 2016 by And So We Begin in art, inspiration

I really love art that is made with words and light such as Tracey Emin's neons. Robert Montgomery is new to me and came to my attention as he was featured on this weekend's BBC 6 Music Art Weekender. He turns his poetry into light, using solar power to illuminate his creations by night. I found this short video that explains a bit more about his work. I also love the use of billboards for art instead of ads. Lovely.

Snail Mail

August 18, 2016 by And So We Begin in snail mail, greetings cards

This brilliant card was from one of my best friends. Nothing better than a little bit of snail mail. Available from Farewell Paperie. Seeing it on my shelf makes me want to send cards to everyone I know just so they can have the pleasure of receiving some hand written mail : )
