Back in the days before Covid19, remember those? Back in the days before Covid19, I used to exhibit regularly with my friend, fellow artist Patti McKenna. We’re both working class women and we are committed to democratising art and where art is displayed. And there’s nothing more democratic than a toilet. We all need to pee. So we put on exhibitions of art in the rather nice and quite spacious toilets at Swansea’s Cinema & Co.ffee. And we called it BogArt! Because it was in the bogs 😀
We were locked out of the bogs during Covid19 and life has sort of got in the way a bit too, but now we’re back on track and we’ve just put up our first post-Covid BogArt in time for International Women’s Day. It’s a collection of drawings featuring women from our sketchbooks: women dancing; women demonstrating; women performing; women listening; women chatting. Pop in for a coffee and cake, or check out their events, and visit our exhibitions in the bogs.
