The Penultimate set from the Book of Lapis shows another project from that year. I had started to visit sites of LGBTQ historical importance such as the Harvey Milk memorial in San Francisco, the Stonewall bar in New York and the Homomonument in Amsterdam. This time I had decided to visit the Alan Turing statue in Manchester to make 7 bowls of offering to the saint. The line from the Buddhist puja “I make offerings at all the holy places and places in which the a Bodhisattvas have been” inspired this set of work. Usually my travelling companion had photographed the prostrations for me but this time my patient friend and fellow Foundation tutor Damian had agreed to come with me do the recording, (which added much to this pilgrimage because I didn’t usually have a fellow artist to notice other details worthy of documentation while I was doing the performance). The first plate is the embossed copper and slate ex voto I made to honour Turing, (shortly after exhibited with #notjustcollective ) Alan Turing was of course a gay man who helped end WWII much earlier and thereby saved hundreds of thousands of lives. In gratitude for this remarkable contribution the government arrested him for his homosexuality, chemically castrated him and caused him to commit suicide. There would be no computers as we know them today without his genius and countless people alive today would have never been born. The hand gesture is a mudra meaning “do not be afraid” the apple he had bitten was laced with cyanide. The second plate I removed my shoes to walk on holy ground to his shrine, on arriving I made appropriate prostrations to him, sat at his feet to request blessings. I offered 7 bowls of water to represent the 7 traditional offerings to a Bodhisattva, and used the holy water to clean the rainbow mosaic at his feet. Only then did I dare sit next to him 🙏 #sketchbook #drawing #drawingsketch #nostalgia #memories #alanturing #enigmacode #saint #hero #martyr #homophobia #immitationgame #blechleypark #computerscience #genius #manchesteruniversity #queerartist #liverpoolartist #icon #exvoto #bodhisattva #pilgrimage #blessings #pridemonth #lgbtq🌈 (at Manchester Gay Village) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cohj1vYMITF/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

It's been an emotional rollercoaster week preparing for my youngster to set off for Manchester Uni, new digs and a new chapter in his life. I am tremendously proud of him. He had to check into his residence on Friday so I saw him off at Euston. Today, Sat, his dad kindly drove me and Matt's possessions, and some surprises for him, to his pad, after which we went for some lunch and a visit to Wilco's at Arndale shopping centre for some more kitchen gear! We said our final goodbyes, until Christmas! Will be counting the days... 💖😭 . . . . #myson #offtouni #anewchapter #manchester #manchesteruniversity #sayinggoodbye #emptynest #bereft (at Manchester, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/CFVbtt9n-Cp/?igshid=hi7rop8o9dns

Returning to University was a pleasure, because student mental health is more important than ever. And delivering a small part of that journey at @ua92mcr, just a few miles from my darkest student days, felt rewarding and helps with continuing a process of healing. And getting to share a stage with @danny_wilsher and @estie_poet - magic #universitymentalhealth #studentmentoring #manchesteruniversities #studentspeaker #youngblackeducators #takingthestage #mentalhealthjourney #wellnessspeaker #entrepreneurofthemonth #youngentrepreneuroftheyear (at University Academy 92) https://www.instagram.com/p/CbevVmrDjak/?utm_medium=tumblr

Hello everyone! My name is Eric Beard and I am a recent graduate from the class of 2018 at Manchester University. I am currently in San Francisco, California at Stanford University. During the 2017 football season, I was nominated as a national semifinalist for the William V. Campbell trophy award. This award represents athletic performance, academic excellence, and community service and is considered by many as the “Academic Heisman”. I was fortunate enough to be invited to the trophy summit and get to hear from CEO’s and former NFL football players about what made them successful. I will be sharing my experiences with you guys throughout the rest of this week, so stay tuned!

A day in Manchester starting back at the old place and good to see Eric’s car sitting proud in the quad. Good also to see the surprise on ex-colleagues faces! #ghostofchristmaspast #lovemanchester #manchesteruniversity #christmas (at Christie's Bistro) https://www.instagram.com/p/BrkHMbeAE8a/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=11n9n4ini17tx
