Here I am drawing while David Pitt plays gong at The Bagpuss Window on Swansea’s High Street. Just a very short video showing the manky old shop when we got it and the still quite manky artspace it is now. It’s being knocked down in a few weeks so everything we do in there is ephemeral, it will eventually only exist in our photos and videos.
As well as the huge drawing on the wall, I’ve been getting into making little tableaux in the window. This one features tiny handmade books by Bud Francis and drawings by me.
And in this one, Robodog Ralph shows Bagpuss how to paint (it’s actually by Tim Swain. AI isn’t that good yet. Not round here anyway).


Love this little video of the space you took over, it looks very alive, what a great way to make and show art and to engage with the public.
Thanks Phil. It’s come on by leaps and buds since but probably destined for demolition next week
This is brilliant Rosie Scribbler. Loving it…
Thank you, Susie
Somehow I was expecting the gongs to be smaller! Great sound. Reminded me of listening to taiko drums (from Japan), the sound reverberates through your body, but is quite a positive feeling.
They’re beautiful objects in their own right
What a cool adventure you and your fellow artists are embarking on. I look forward to the evolution.
Thanks Sharon. We’re enjoying it
