“Since teaching art has been destructive to the practice of every artist I know who teaches, I try never to forget that the few good, serious teachers of art pay a price that’s way too high for the privilege of doing it.”

- Dave Hickey

It’s funny, since I’ve been teaching – I haven’t taken a single photograph until yesterday. This is the first new piece of work I’ve made in over three months. How am I meant to teach anything new if I’m not making relevant work? Well, I’m not sure how relevant my work is – but you get what I mean. I love teaching but it does seem to harm your own practice.
