dead-sweet-art: ‘Your cold dead heart has frozen mine’By Mia-Jane Harris “Your heart fakes it to make you happy,Then it makes you sad so you stop pretending it’s there.But it’s all bullshit.Problem is when you figure that out you stop feeling it.And then you start to miss it.”

‘Your cold dead heart has frozen mine’
By Mia-Jane Harris


“Your heart fakes it to make you happy,
Then it makes you sad so you stop pretending it’s there.
But it’s all bullshit.
Problem is when you figure that out you stop feeling it.
And then you start to miss it.”

PERSONAL BLOG!!!

So a few people have been asking me if I have a personal blog, I don’t have a tumblr one but as of a couple of days ago I now have a personal blog in the form of instagram.

So anyone who wants to see other artists that inspire me/that I love, places/events I go to, unfinished artwork progresses & sketches, and little snippets into me & my life etc then go follow me here:

Progress of my two new taxidermy pieces.

They are now stuffed, posed in their positions, and buried in salt.

The magpie is for a collaboration piece with artist Edie-Jo Murray (http://ediejomurray.co.uk/), and the jay is for a new piece of mine entitled ‘The less I look into his eyes, The longer I get to keep him’.

St.Leonards-On-Sea

Went down to ‘High Tide’ today to drop off my three mermaid foetus pieces for the opening night group show on Friday. Got to view the gallery space for the first time and I really like it :) should have about 4 metres of wall space for my work when I have my solo show there in May.

After dropping my pieces off I had a wonder round the town and found loads of amazing antiques shops to rummage through and ended up buying a huge antique frame that I will use in my solo show there in May and my show in The Brick Lane Gallery in April :)

dead-sweet-art: ‘New World IV’By Mia-Jane Harris Trying to decide which taxidermy pieces and which illustrations I’m going to use for my next two big exhibitions: 3 metre space in a group show @ ‘The Brick Lane Gallery’ in April, and my solo show @ ‘The High Tide Gallery Space’ in May.As these two shows are quite far apart in location (one in central London & one on the seaside of east Sussex) I can show a few of the same pieces without it mattering but I would like the shows to vary also.This is one of the pieces that I’ve selected for both show’s as it is one of my favourites.
