One of my favourite exhibitions Iāve seen so far at the Turner. Fleshy, saturated, contradictory, evocative, disturbing, lush, potent.

2019 hasnāt been my favourite year so far. Iām really proud of the progress Iāve made in my writing - Iāve pushed myself to try harder and think deeper about what Iām actually doing and how Iām going to do it. I got my MA, and my dissertation is some of the truest stuff Iāve ever written. But writing it was really really hard. So hard I feel burnt out now, and everything I was working on has stalled. I qualified as a yoga teacher, but only after becoming so troubled and disillusioned with yoga that at some points I wondered if I would ever practise it again. Iāve moved between jobs, Iāve made and deepened friendships, Iāve made choices and had no choices. I moved out, and thatās been great but adulting is tough. There have been personal things so big and terrible I didnāt quite know how I would survive them.
So idk. 2019 has been hard.
And thatās not even talking about the decade.
