BACKGROUND

BEVERLEY STERLING

Beverley is a visual ceramicist/graphic artist who produces short movies and animation and recently 'Urbanesque Jewellery'. She has exhibited her work in the UK, Zimbabwe and Senegal.

“I develop a lot of my experimental ideas using ceramics, photography and text from my surroundings, living and working in Nottingham (UK) and in the past, Zimbabwe and Senegal. My short movies sometimes involve people participating and exploring their cultural identities and this may involve a ceramic object or any item that has a particular significance which evokes a memory, a situation or experience(s)”

RISKY RIDE FOR 2011 - THIS PICTURE IS FOR REAL

For those of you who did not believe - this picture is for real!!! - except for the number plates.

It was taken while I was in a car going to St Louis, Senegal and I just happen to have my camera on me and couldn't believe it when the car with the goats riding on top passed us. I was lucky to get such a close picture. And it is definitely one of the memorable pictures I have taken.

Hey, if goats can take a risky ride, why can't we.....we never know where we may end up!!!!! Something to think about for 2011.
