Ross Sinclair reflects on his Real Life Gordon’s / Deveron Arts residency in Huntly
This is a very interesting and engaging slideshow/voice over lecture reflective statement from Ross Sinclair on his 3 month residency at Deveron Arts, Huntly last year. The energy, the anxiety, the what if’s for the artist in working in this context with a theme, blimey, what would it have been like if he didn’t do what he did, the gathering together of the local Gordons was a significant human reason to do all this. Important document of the project from the voice of the artist.

Creative Destruction
The media coverage of the death of Malcolm McLaren has made me consider that as a creative, entrepreneurial catalytical spirit, he was in fact a curator.
