#154: Portraits of Artists as Everyday Objects
A series of portraits of artists represented by an object - the object itself, rather than a picture or a painting of it. Often the most obvious thing. For example, LS Lowry is a matchstick, Yoko Ono is a grapefruit and Vincent Van Gogh a sunflower.
Who would you include, and what would represent them?

#153: The Landscapes of Your Life
An exhibition of landscapes you have enjoyed during your lifetime.
Each piece will have a title in which you could include a date, if you wish - especially if the landscape no longer exists (or has altered from the one you remember), or to give the landscape its position within your life. It might be that you only experienced the landscape once, for example on holiday, or it might be one that you experienced regularly, perhaps while walking to work over a particular period in time.
Its content, though, is merely the coordinates of the place to be to see the landscape and the direction to look in. For example:
Mote Park, Maidstone: View of Mote House and the North Downs beyond, 1998-2013. 51.26210676149764°N, 0.5480418031282992°W, Looking North.
