Looking at my Ceiling - Celeste Drouin-Davis

£10.00

“Looking at my ceiling was made after I spent many afternoons literally starting at my ceiling thinking about what my next project should be. The role of the artist plays a big role in my life, and with this is the anxiety that I am a bad artist if I cannot come up with a new idea for a project quickly.

I find that I am always looking up at the ceiling at least once a day. Tired after work or just daydreaming; When I was guilting myself for not having ideas, I was looking at the ceiling. So, this book is not just about admiring the ceiling, but also the experience of boredom, artist guilt, task paralysis and dissociating. but all of this lead to the admiration of these feelings and the experience I have when I look at the ceiling. I believe that all feelings should be treasured and felt to the fullest.

When I start to look at the ceiling for long periods of time, my eyes lose focus and the colours merge into one, I battle for focus again, and I start to follow the lines and landscape of the ceiling. “
