'The Sideshow Train'


I have become a bit of a hermit in the last few months, but with good reason. I have two exhibitions opening next week, and the opening nights are literally one after the other. One of these happens to be a solo show, and that is scary on a scale I cannot describe.

The Sideshow Train started off as a small idea, a bunch of characters that feel like they don't fit in, like they are the from the sideshow that sits at the edge of everything. I had some of the names sorted (Tea & Sympathy, Nonsense & Riddles) but that was all. Then my husband looked through my sketches and started writing stories to go with them, and the little idea I had has become a lot bigger.

So, on Friday 24th September we will be spending the day turning the black room at Brunswick Street Gallery into the sideshow room. By 6pm it will be ready to go, and all are welcome to join in the fun that opening nights always are.
