00:00I reconnected with David Allison, who was the exhibition that we're having here for the

00:09Oval Show. About six months ago, after working together quite extensively, 15 years ago,

00:17and for a period of about five years, had some great exhibitions with David. He wanted to get

00:22back involved with me. I was kind of out of the scene a little bit, and then a conversation

00:28started with Polina and Assy, and suddenly the gate's opened. It's been really interesting

00:33the last few months as it's all started to come together again. It culminates in this first show

00:38on the 13th, with David again, and it's really exciting. We have a vague vision for what's

00:46going to happen here between Westbourne Arts and Endicawa. We're not really fixed on any point

00:51at the moment. It's just good art, music, food, welcoming space, and watch this space to see what happens.

01:04We've got about 20 pieces of work going in from various periods, and it's extremely interesting to

01:13see it in this particular space. I think that it will pull quite a lot of people in from a variety of

01:20backgrounds, from students, children, older people who are fascinated by the art, and will come to

01:28experience this environment, which is also beautifully designed space that the work will be in. It looks

01:37specific long series and depending on whether we're good on the world. I'm very pleased.
