Outside in....The Saatchi Gallery

Today I bring you a little side step from the norm. I would say that the Saatchi Gallery is my favourite in London. I love this space. I love the air around the work. The light in there is amazing, it is a great size and I always feel good about having gone. I visited over the holidays and for once I took some pictures while I was there so thought I would share my favourites.

Swarm by Tessa Farmer have a look more closely at her work with the link it is amazing - little skeletons on the backs of suspended bees, wasps and dragonflies. I was enraptured and then noticed the look on the faces of the people around me. As the exhibit is in a glass box I was able to take the pictures without anyone realising as they probably thought I was photographing the exhibit.

Almond Blossom 3 by Mustafa Hulusi. Is it any surprise I chose these? Look at the image I  use to represent myself. I love these. Love the energy and colour.

 I am so used to not taking pictures in these public places, even though it seems to be the norm now, I still feel a little guilty doing it. So there is no image of my 3rd favourite work in the exhibition - is by Richard Wilson and is in the basement in room 13 and is a room full of oil - it was smelly but fascinating and it took a while to figure out just exactly what was happening. I have just realised it has always been there as it is on permanent display. This was obviously then the 1st time I have ventured into the basement. Although there were other works that I liked these were the ones that caught my attention most.

WONDERFUL POST DVORA!! I have a secret...Hiro's previous company lit this space (ERCO) and he played a large hand in it so I am soooooo happy to see you mention the light.

I think Tessa's work is amazing. Real creepy, like evil little faeries running amok!

Beautiful photos - all of them. Like the colour and the monochrome and the lovely grey/black and white combination in the last shot (!)

That first exhibit sounds amazing! I think I readan article about it.. And I always end up wanting to take pictures of the people around me when at galleries - you did a fantastic job!
Well done on the BBH job too, that must have been fun.
Happy new year! Oh and those nail scissors are now nestling on my dressing table, and are incredibly useful!
