To placate the furious internal Blue Peter presenter Anna makes papier-mâché animal heads and transcribes self-help books and text messages. Taking Brixton Village and Paul Mckenna as muses, and foraging for paint in bins means that circumstance and happenstance drive creations more than any overarching intention or plan. Any coherence is through repetition of materials rather than any emerging theme. Making mistakes is integral to the process, items are first badly made and then corrected, as to be initially good would shorten the pleasure in the making.

With deft hands and inky fingers Anna has been slowly filling the house, but the time draws near to show and tell these terrible mistakes.
