Ever tried to explain to someone what you do in one sentence?
IMPOSSIBLE you say … I Agree!
I want to listen to you explaining what you do even if it takes 1,000 sentences
All you have to do is participate in my study!
- What does it mean to be a creative person these days?
- Which are the people, networks and platforms that are most important for you?
- What are your day-to-day activities?
- What was it like when you first started out as a creative person?
- What went well, what didn’t go so well?
- And what are the best parts of working in the creative sector and how did you make it all possible?
I am a researcher at the Media department of the London School of Economics and I want you to guide me in answering these questions.
I am currently recruiting a group of dynamic and open-minded artists who want to share their experiences of working in a creative profession with me. All of you, who participate in the study, will get a selection of home-baked Austrian (my definition of art!) Christmas cookies plus you will get an invitation to the private view of Art Below's 'Art of Angel' Exhibition on the 16th January.
If you would like participate, please contact me at C.Reyes-Acosta@lse.ac.uk
I am looking forward to hearing from you!

ELEANOR LINDSAY-FYNN
AT THE OTHER ART FAIR
Art Below was proud to represent artist Eleanor Lindsay-Fynn at The Other Art Fair this October.
The artist carried out a live performance at the opening event on Wednesday 17th October which was filmed and will be screened later on in November as part of her ongoing exhibition.
Her work 'blue masks' is featured at Regent's Park station as part of 'Art Below Regent's Park'.
This exhibition did not start off being about death – it became about death by chance. I was reflecting on my relationship with death and I could not see a way out. I have a lot of fear about death, my death, which I know will come, and that fear is peppered by the sense that I am not really living life as well as I could be.
There is a belief that if you live well, you die well. I am not yet convinced of it. However, I do know that we have a confused notion of what living well means here in the West. For me what is missing is a kind of humble gratitude and a general loving quite-ness. It is a sacred appreciation, head bent-hands raised felt sense of awe. A feeling of gratitude that reminds me of my smallness, the feeling is tinged with shame, a useful emotion that pulls me back from superficial living.
Being with this feeling is important to me, in those moments lessons are learnt and profound knowing replaces my habitual existential fears. These moments are what transpersonal psychotherapist Wilber would call as peak experiences, or what Freud calls a religious experience. However, dare I talk about this back in London? Dare I admit that I am exploring spirituality? Everyone has the capacity to have these moments but not necessarily take them seriously. The piece started because I wanted to break the taboo of talking about death, but I realise it’s not the death taboo I want to break; it is the spirituality one. Death, however, is my way in.
