The 12 week art courses they run comprise of sessions including drawing, painting, collage, print, textiles, clay, wire and photography and take place in community venues across the whole of South Essex.

A very hot summer stew

(Above: Led Bib)
Led Bib should be a pop band. They have those strong individual looks of bands that I used to pull out of Smash Hits when I was younger. The exotic looking one, the young looking one, the smouldering one, the bad ass, the kind of goofy but really he’s the cutest one. Ahem, [...]
Unconnected stuff

(above is an image of a beaver, it has no relevance to the below post, aside from that i quite like it)
Spitalfields has been the spiritual home of pies since Square Pie laid down its steak and ale roots there back in 2001 (on reflection, it probably goes back a wee bit further, what with [...]
Seb & Fiona curate…

‘EDF Substation’: the term brings to mind brick structures, on the side of a rail track or a sullen piece of derelict land; something belonging to the same category as the hatches we walk over on the pavement – things we don’t really notice or think about as we go about our business. “Secure structures [...]
It’s really hot

It’s hot. So hot it’s hard not to spend a lot of time just staring out the window at the big swaying tree over the road by the Fruit and Wool Exchange. I don’t really know much about tree breeds (is ‘breeds’ even the right word? I doubt it) but it’s one of those classic [...]
Fancy being an intern at Seb & Fiona?

So it is that once again we’re looking for enthusiastic interns to come and work with us for 3 – 4 days per week for a period of between 6 weeks and 3 months.
The placement will require the intern to undertake general office duties i.e. deal with incoming/outgoing post, press cuttings, mail-outs and answering the [...]

We’ve had some new arrivals in Seb & Fiona towers. There’s Cheryl who is currently helping us out with Spitalfields, and there’s Federica too (pictured below).
We’ll get them to write something here soon, once they’ve settled in. For now here’s a link to Federica’s photography:

Interns again
Posted in Seb & Fiona on August 10, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
We’ve always been amazingly lucky with our interns. Recently, David Maguire, Misha Agzarian (pictured) and Andrew Gillespie have each in turn proved incredibly valuable to life in the Seb & Fiona office. Yes, there was admin to be done, and envelopes to be stuffed – all of which they carried out with untold panache. But [...]
Surgeons on the Side?

Hello World,
I’m David, the newest edition to the Seb and Fiona clan. I exist in this space as a result of Fiona’s rallying ‘Call for Interns’ (see blog post 30th March).
I called back ‘I want your job, please!’ I interviewed, it went well … and I was there.
So far, I believe messrs Seb and Fiona [...]
There was an old lady who swallowed a cat…

No, Fiona hasn’t swapped her blonde locks for brunette! I’m the new Friday addition to Seb & Fiona’s growing empire. Officially I’m here to help out on Seb & Fiona projects, but unofficially I’m here to escape… my mice. What started out as the odd dropping underneath my toaster has become a full scale epidemic.
