Mobile Photography & Art Flickr and Instagram Showcase – 25 October 2020
Memories often provide a great access point for creating a body of work artwork. I’ve been looking at a series entiteld “if you get married again, will you still love me?“. Essentially, separated fathers were asked for memories of words spoken to them by their children. Utilising this information and based upon the spoken responses and what images they invoked in the artists mind, Sharon Boothroyd tried to understand what the children may have been thinking or feeling at the time. The series presents emotional moments, often out of view from the public space, of fathers with their children or children contemplating their new life not living with their father.…
Mobile Art – Draw The Line #TAWidentity Challenge
Huge thanks to our curators and editors of our Draw the Line Column, Carol Wiebe and Peter Wilkin for selecting these wining images to our latest challenge and also for creating the wonderful accompanying video showcase. “With over 200 tagged images entered in our latest challenge ‘Identity’, selecting just nine of them for our showcase was predictably difficult yet simultaneously extremely enjoyable. The standard of your art, as it always is, was incredible. The vast majority of images focused on people & portraits: some of them were self-portraits whilst some featured other people. After hours of deliberation I finally settled on the nine pieces below, although I could easily have…
Book Launch – A Joyous Representation of Mobile Art Visualised Through the Quilt Project
I am delighted today to announce the publication of the Mobile Art Quilt Project Book. Now, arguably considered to be one of the 21st century’s most important poetic pieces and a defining staple of mobile art. It is a piece of literature and art that was inspired by the creation of the physical Mobile Art Quilt which showcases 234 pieces of art created by individual mobile artists throughout the world. Each artwork stands on its own, with its own structure, meaning and symbolism. Inside the book there are written texts by architect of the Quilt Project, Roger Guetta as well as collaborators, Lorenka Campos, Linda Toki and Kate Zari Roberts.…
A Visual Tour of Alec Soth’s Bookshelf
If you’re anything like me, you will have read more books than had hot dinners, the former was always a priority. Alec Soth (of whom I am a huge fan) is not too different. In this unqiue video he gives shares a tour of his bookcase, it’s truly original, enjoy! Alec Soth (b. 1969) is a photographer born and based in Minneapolis, Minnesota. His work is rooted in the distinctly American tradition of ‘on-the-road photography’ developed by photographers like Walker Evans, Robert Frank, and Stephen Shore. Concerned with the mythologies and oddities that proliferate America’s disconnected communities, Soth has an instinct for the relationship between narrative and metaphor. His clarity…

Mobile Photography and Art Flickr/Instagram Showcase – 7 June 2020
It’s no secret that I have been romantically linked with a vast number of visually literate artforms over the years. Art raises awareness and elicits empathy for the matters at stake but sometimes we have to bend the message towards a more subjective and conceptualised direction. When I make art, it’s intimate, romantic, dramatic, confessional, I am metaphorically seduced. I’ll never tire of romance, it’s the only vice I have and my production is expeditious. Collectively, we have to believe that art has this power, this charisma, potential for magic and you don’t need to look further than this weeks Mobile Photography and Art showcase for that. Enjoy! If you…
