Glittermouse (Annabeth Orton) graduated in Fine Art Sculpture from Kingston University in 2002 and has since taught a range of 2D and 3D processes at Further Education Colleges in London and Manchester. With a broad practice historically including painting, illustration and even a craft stall at Camden Market, she first began experimenting with digital techniques after encountering the Demoscene in 2005 and has since placed first in digital graphics competitions in the UK and Europe. More recently, she has been combining a love for the digital with a continued exploration of physical making processes and has exhibited interactive drawing installations at Alternative Party in Helsinki in October 2010, Blacked Out in London in August 2010 and presented the solo show Marking the Territory at the Link Gallery in Manchester in April 2010. A recent MA in 3D Design at Manchester Metropolitan University, supported an evolution of practice towards exploring the role of interaction in dissussing issues of modern city spaces, including public ownership and social cohesion. As part of this work, This Belongs To is an ongoing open participation project which has been being developed into a series of workshops and corresponding exhibitions throughout 2011. More information on current working stages can be found in her blog Word of Mouse, and on the Sketchbook pages of this site.
