I’m having a small expo on the 24th of Jan (A week before my departure) with a selected run of prints of one edition at around A3 to A2 size (requests for prints of a larger size should be send to me before the expo so that I can organise them)
Greetings Friends, comrades, art appreciators and cultural aficionados! I hope this letter of blatant self-promotion finds you in good humour and health! (if it doesn’t I probably have less chance of winning you over. That’s Marketing 101 right there)
Good news:
I have recently relaunched and completely overhauled my website and stuffed it choc-full of content, from photography to collage and digital abstracts.
The webaddress is http://www.edbabb.com and I encourage you to explore it much as possible!
As you may or may not be aware, I will be leaving for a trip to the East before the end of this year, starting my journey in Cambodia – possibly traveling across land to neighbouring countries if budget allows – and then moving to London for an indefinite period of time, to work and travel as best a vagabond without a laptop can manage. I will be blogging as much of the experience as possible (means no promises) and creating a photo essay and possibly a documentary of the journey.
In order to raise funds I am selling prints and original artworks through my website as well as soliciting commissions and freelance work before my departure from Cape Town. Your support would be most welcome and appreciated. Prints are modestly priced and originals will certainly be worth more in the next couple of years – possibly millions if I get blown up while stepping on land mines in Cambodia (for those of you who do buy, please do not wish this upon me – art is a very speculative market…).
If at all possible, I’d like to put on an exhibition before leaving so if you know anyone who would be willing to host or help please let me know. I’d also be interested in collaborating on a show if any of my talented artists friends are interested.
Do it with love
Ed
