<span style="font-size: small;">The resemblance
to my work and proposal sketches is uncanny to say the least and has sparked interesting
ideas for the development of this projection slideshow work utilising layered
20th century patterns sourced from the detritus of Stoke-on-Trent, since 2005. Building on concepts of layering, storytelling, reinvention and
reinterpretation, and an alternative ‘archiving’ of images and motifs.<span style="color: #262626;"> </span><span style="color: #262626;">The work deals with the historical, ancestral and
archetypal; where the patterns are deconstructed, distorted and re-worked,
commenting on the cyclic nature of trends within art & design history.</span> Processes include
both the physical removal of materials as a means of accessing history through ‘excavation’,
and the application of print and paint directly onto surfaces to reveal visual
histories<span style="line-height: 115%;">.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;">Previously, I have worked onto acetate with a focus on maker’s
marks and distortion through the application of print, paint, transfer
and layering processes in the development of slides and animations - utilising found
image slides, handmade paper, corn starch cellophane and acetate. I now wish to
experiment working directly onto glass and the format of the ‘slideshow’ will
be explored further in terms of a layering and movement of images, accessing ‘hidden’
visual information and developing a relevant audience and collaborations; exploring a coming
together of both images, community and the arts in one space/ performance to
form a ‘whole’. </span></div>

traditional china painting techniques. Kay and Diane were really drawn to the
hands, as some of them were carrying out the techniques and methods they use.
The ‘Helping Hands’ promote the handmade and keeping skills alive, which the
Burslem China Painters are all about. It was really nice to see skilled workers
hands at work in the space, and handling the paper ‘Helping Hands’. In one of
the pictures above, Kay’s hand can be seen placing a decorator’s hand on the
wall. <br /><br />Diane in particular was drawn to the images and chose some of the hands relating
to her own skills to copy onto one of her plates and spent the day transferring
and painting the outlines in sepia. She intends to paint two plates in two
colours using the images. I can’t wait to see the results of a collaboration
that came about in the Laboratory. The Burslem China painter’s plates will be
on view in the Laboratory for the remainder of the BCB.</span><br />

Back in March 2013, I visited 'William Morris and the Kelmscott Press', Muirhead Tower Atrium, as part of Birmingham University's Arts & Science Festival. The exhibition of works from the Cadbury Research Library showcased fine
examples of books from the Kelmscott Press, founded by William Morris in
1891.<br />

The exhibition examined Morris's inspiration behind the founding
of the press, through early manuscripts and 15th century printed books.
The exhibition also touched on the Morris legacy and the influence of
the Kelmscott Press on later book arts. I was able to see some of the books and pieces which have influenced my
practice for a number of years in the flesh, and got the rare opportunity to
handle the Kelmscott Chaucer and view the immaculately hand-printed and hand-bound pages up close.<br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 12pt;">
<span style="font-size: small;">It was a great opportunity to deliver the Wildflower Seed bomb Workshop within the
context of the SUPERNORMAL festival / experimental site where the focus remains
''firmly rooted in art, environment and pushing boundaries, and embracing difference
whilst celebrating common cause.''</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;">SUPERNORMAL is a three day, experimental arts and music festival at
Braziers Park in Oxfordshire organised on a collective basis by artists and
musicians and offering a platform for artists, performers and musicians to work
collaboratively and creatively for a new kind of audience.</span></div>
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">The workshop brought together young and old alike and we talked about
our own gardens, wild spaces, allotments (and growing efforts) and wastelands
and how we can improve them (using the SUPERNORMAL seedbomb as a starting
point!) whilst mixing the seedbombs.</span> </span><br />

and maintenance, tree planting, both for landscape enhancement and to provide
woodland for coppicing, and meadow management have all been happening on the
site for 10 years, and much of the work involved so far has been undertaken by
volunteers. <br /><br />The site was teeming with Honey bees which was fantastic to see, although we hoped that the seedbombs may offer some wild flowers to attract them as an alternative to Cider!</span></div>

came along to the workshop with enthusiasm to chat, make seedbombs and scatter
wild flowers on-site or those who took theirs away with a specific location in mind. The Honey bees on site will appreciate the wildflowers
we seedbombed the site with!!</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /><br />SUPERNORMAL
is a three day, experimental arts and music festival at Braziers Park in
Oxfordshire organised on a collective and entirely unpaid basis by a dedicated
group of artists and musicians and offering a platform for artists, performers
and musicians to work collaboratively and creatively for a new kind of
audience.<br /><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-size: small;">“ It is
determinedly small and intimate and has been born from a place that values the
currency of ideas and imagination rather than commercialism and profit. The
focus remains firmly rooted in art, environment and pushing boundaries,
embracing difference whilst celebrating common cause. <br /><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-size: small;">SUPERNORMAL
is intended to give the arts a far wider audience and artists a greater
challenge than the usual artists’ residency or conventional Festival ‘with art
attached’ ever can.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif; line-height: normal;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">For the first time, SUPERNORMAL
has absolutely no external funding. They are 100% reliant on ticket sales to
cover costs…</span></div>
<div style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">They are only a couple of hundred
tickets away from a sell-out, but *have* to sell out to cover costs.<br /><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">So, they need support and have
issued this plea:<br /><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><b>If you plan
to come to Supernormal, please <a href="http://www.supernormalfestival.co.uk/product/weekend-tickets/" title="Tickets">buy your ticket</a> as soon as possible. This will make an
enormous difference to us!<br /><br /></b></span></div>
<div style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><b>Whether you
can make it this year or not, please help us spread the word at this crucial
time. </b></span></div>
<div style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">“Here’s to keeping something
truly independent alive.<br /><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Here’s to breaking the mould.<br /><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Here’s to
being SUPERNORMAL.”</b></span><span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;"></span></div>

<span class="fblongblurb"><br />MEND*RS was a Mending Research Symposium at Docker in South
Cumbria, <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>was the first ever large-scale
gathering dedicated to mending in the UK, with a series of events, publications
and activist projects around mending. It took place from 29 June to 2 July,
2012 and was organised by</span><span style="mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;"> Jonnet Middleton, Guiseppe Salva and Beck Collins to
‘<span style="mso-bidi-font-style: italic;">bring about the age of mending</span>‘!
And to<span style="mso-bidi-font-style: italic;"> ‘bring together an emergent
community of research around issues of repair. By research we include
practice-based research, arts-based research, activist research as well as
traditional academic inquiry. We want to establish a network of researchers and
practitioners who are exploring aspects of mending’.</span></span></div>

<br />
WHY AM I A MENDER?</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
I approached the Mend*rs symposium with an interest in the
materials and processes that would take place there. I was to create practical
signage to highlight the different locations and activities happening on-site,
creating functional artworks with an aesthetic which was relevant to the site and
notions of mending. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
The ‘Helping Hands’ series and pointing hands featured in
the signage were printed from household and DIY manuals from 1920s-1950’s,
harking back to a period where resourcefulness and skills were practiced daily.
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
I also worked throughout the symposium to document the practical
activity taking place there within the ‘Menders Toolkit’. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>My initial blog post outlining the activity at
the 1<sup>st</sup> Mend*rs Symposium can be viewed in a previous post <a href="http://www.unstructuredmaterial.blogspot.co.uk/2012/07/mendrs-symposium-work-event.html" target="_blank">HERE.</a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"></span>My artwork makes use
of recycled materials. Paper based artwork is created using 100% recycled
papers and card stock made from post-consumer waste. Other materials I salvage
and re-work are wallpapers, fabrics, building materials, household/grocery
packaging to name a few. From an environmental perspective my artwork aims to
promote re-use and I do see this as a process of mending- in relation to one of
the permaculture principles of ‘earth care’ and being resourceful with the
materials (both natural and man-made) currently available on our planet. <br />
<br />
To me
mending extends beyond the realm of physical fixing of things, to conceptual
outcomes, mindfulness towards materials and resources and our impact as
individuals and the choices we make as consumers. The planet cannot support our
mass consumerism, and issues about impending peak oil makes the matter all the
more worrying.<br />
<br />
We can make decisions now- to become menders and learn the
skills to become more self-sufficient and resilient in terms of not relying on
the production of new goods from factories and learning how to mend (and make)
the items that we use within our daily lives and be resourceful with what we
have. I believe these are vital skills which we all should develop now in 2012,
more than ever. If we as a society
can lessen the need/ demand for constantly new items- clothes, objects then we
would save and conserve vital resources.<br />

FURTHER IMPACT ON MY PRACTICE</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
The week was inspiring.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span><a href="http://www.futuremenders.com/">Jonnet Middleton’s</a> talk in
particular raised questions and issues that impact my daily life and work as an
artist- dealing with the accumulation and consuming of stuff; mainly materials
used within my art practice, household/domestic items and clothes. I do buy
most of my things second-hand, but Jonnet’s talk has made me consider whittling
down the amount of things I buy, and the stuff I gather- as it can become a
burden and it is unnecessary.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
I am therefore now putting into practice within my artwork
the re-use of material, and how this impacts surface with an accumulated
history of use. The ‘art suit’ and ‘art patch’ concept developed earlier this
year had touched on these themes- using salvaged fabric patches and William Morris
fabrics to patch people’s holes in a performance based activity. </div>

I am
now entering into a project that combines previous themes; dealing with history
of use, and patina of surface as narrative. Alongside the continued use of
found and salvage fabrics and papers I intend to re-use my materials from project
to project- these include papers and canvases which are used as prints and
paintings. I like the idea of creating multi-functional artwork, which could
exist as a painting, a shelter for example.This was explored in last year's Airspace Gallery Studio show
in Margate where a hand painted parasol cover became a functional item on the
beach front and then was removed and displayed as a painting on the wall. </div>

I
intend to take this a step further, re making and re-painting the same
canvases, and repairing the wear and tear over the years. Stitch marks, creases,
patches, cutting and re-stitching will allow a surface to build up as a result
of re-use and repair. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"><br /></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
I have previously explored the links between lifestyle and art
practice and debated how lifestyle is a creative process and question what constitutes
creative activity? The Mending process is a truly creative one and I believe
that our objects, clothes and surroundings become more meaningful as well as
beautiful and tactile when we mend, repair and create a history of use
reflective of our life. Within my artwork I explore history of use and process.
I am interested in how the wear and tear of objects and theory subsequent
repair reflects human experience and can act as a means of recording and
documenting.<br />

MY PERSONAL MANIFESTO AS AN ARTIST</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
How I am going to incorporate notions / issues of mending
into my art practice:<br />
Attending the Mend*rs symposium re-ignited some personal interests put a new
slant onto sustainability and environmental awareness in regards to
resourcefulness and consuming or even making of new 'stuff'. On reflection on
some of the themes discussed at Mend*rs symposium I have realised I have an
issue with the creation of yet more 'stuff' as an artist.<br />
<br />
I am happy producing
things out of otherwise waste or scrap materials, which have been developed
throughout my <a href="http://www.reconstructiveart.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank">Reconstructive</a> range, but I intend this notion to extend into my
art practice and an interesting project could be developed- re-using the same
canvas and materials from project to project. <br />
<br />
Paintings and items will be created which reveal history of use, process,
mindfulness, and context. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
MY FUTURE AIMS & INPUT TO MEND*RS</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
RESOURCE PACKS & POSTCARDS</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
I am interested in creating resources and skill sharing
methods and solutions. And would be keen to develop resources for DIY kits and
postcards, based on some of the techniques share at the Mend*rs Symposium,
which are featured in the Mend*rs toolkit. These could be developed further to
create a series of collectible mending cards that each contain a simple yet
practical method, from darning a sock to repairing an inner tube on a bike.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br />
Content would be
gathered from the Mend*rs network/practitioners from the 1<sup>st</sup> Mend*rs
Symposium, and I would propose to design and illustrate instructions into a
series of collectible postcards. Postcards would also allow the info to be accessible
and exchangeable- send a friend a postcard...They would act as good promotion
for the Mend*rs network- propaganda style.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br />
These are some of my reflections and ideas. I hope that
other Mend*rs who were involved with the symposium feel these ideas are
relevant and I hope a discussion can begin about making some of these ideas
happen. <br />
<br />
Thanks to all the Mend*rs at the symposium who have inspired my current
practice.</div>

The Tent was first developed as part of the ‘Developing
Small Encounters’ Research and development week which was facilitated by the
Small Encounters Collective and Artist Adrian Howells, at MAC Birmingham in May
2012. The Tent is a transient and constantly changing piece, with content based
on current research, intended to act as a physical ‘blog’ or sharing space.<br />

Earlier this month I ran a sign making & banner making workshop at <a href="http://farm2grow.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank">Farm2Grow</a> care farm in Staffordshire Moorlands.</div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
On the day we learned basic sign writing skills and used experimental print techniques, and eco- paints (we also made traditional egg tempera paint using the eggs laid by the chickens on-site) to create various signage for the Farm open day, to direct people on site, and also made some smaller scale herb labels.</div>

I am also installing and designing the new shop space, which will be opening to co-incide with the event day. The shop will contain local wares and hand made items. The shop will be opening regularly after the event day and we are currently looking for local produce and craft items to sell from the shop.

a perfect opportunity to share my ARTea project which aims to promote the use
of selected herbs to promote creativity and provide a creative experience. I am
interested in the use of organic produce and linking notions of growing,
creativity and well-being. Performance, art & life as holistic practice. I am looking at the concepts of ‘Teaism’ (which
represents do much of our art & life) that is rooted in ancient Zen/Taoist
practices.</span></span></div>

I liked the re-purposing of the bench, a lot of this type of re-using and re-purposing activity happens within the gallery- we have many fittings and fixures that appear in different incarnations in exhibitions and projects.

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">The project
also deals with issues of sustainability-especially in an artist lead space such as AirSpace, where funds are tight. We often serve tea and coffees to visitors here at AirSpace, and I would like to be able to offer visitors a fresh herbal tea which
they can come and pick themselves. Growing herbs in the Yarden will save some
cash, and perhaps generate a bit of income if we ask for donations for a fresh
herbal cuppa. There is also potential to bag up dried herbs to sell or swap, or
for individual use.</span></span></div>

wood and canvas, along with different experimental print techniques. We will
mix some paints using natural pigments and use eco-friendly paints made from
natural based ingredients such as clays and plant resins, along with some other
interesting and unusual materials & techniques. You will learn how to
create your own signs using scrap materials that you can go away to try at
home.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;">On 29<sup>th</sup> June- 2<sup>nd</sup> July 2012 I attended the
MEND*RS research symposium which was hosted in the various out-buildings of a
beautiful farm in Docker<span class="fblongblurb">, South Cumbria. This event
was first ever large-scale gathering dedicated to mending in the UK, with a
series of events, publications and activist projects around mending. Visit the
MEND*RS website <a href="http://mendrs.net/" style="color: #bf9000;" target="_blank">here.</a></span></span><br />

hand-made signage for the site, a set of artist’s multiples in the form of ‘Helping
Hands’, both of which were created before the event to be installed on-site. Throughout the duration of the symposium I
worked to create the ‘MEND*RS toolkit’ which became an assemblage of practical &
usable materials gathered on site as a document of activity. More about the separate pieces of work

<span style="font-size: small;">These were a series of life-size helping hands, carrying out
direct (mending) action. The images of working hands were taken from household repair
manuals of times gone by, and aimed to bring ideas of craftsmanship and mending
into the future to promote positive direct action and the idea of ‘leave this
place better than you found it’- a permaculture principle. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;">One of the hands became a
gift to the farm’s resident mender & Folk musician Steve Grundy as a thanks
for the folk music, singing, & stories he offered, his lathe workshop demo and his friendliness. </span><br />

<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;">I also enjoyed being shown his father’s signwriting set, </span><span style="font-size: small;">(seen above, with one of his father's postcards)</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;">I hope the remaining
helping hands will find equally suitable homes too.</span><span style="font-size: small;"> </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;">I also intend to develop more of these ‘helping hands’ as
interventions to highlight areas in need of mending in various locations.</span></div>

<div class="Default" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">The signs I created were made from canvas scraps, natural
resin-based emulsion, emulsion paint, food colouring, natural beeswax, found
wool, & recycled paper. I was originally inspired by the MEND*RS theme and
made use of graphics of working hands (the same used for the Helping Hand
Artwork) taken from old DIY & repair manuals- in keeping with the MEND*RS
theme.</span><br />

that have been functioning workshops and barns for many years. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: small;">The process of making these signs was a return to working with textiles
and some painting and printing methods I love. The stencilled lettering was created using
‘The Econasign Super Outfit’ sign writers set from 1928, which is always a
pleasure to use. I took the stencils on-site for people to have a go with too,
to create labels for the MEND*RS Toolkit...</span></div>

before the Symposium was due to start, due to the rainfall, and a cobbled yard 150
years old had been churned up and destroyed. In true MEND*RS style a group got together
to level the ground once the water had receded.</span><span style="font-size: small;"><span class="fblongblurb"> </span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: small;"><span class="fblongblurb">On a
personal level, the toolkit became a means of meeting individuals and
exchanging conversation & materials. It provided a great platform to meet
other menders and gain insight into their working practices and
methods of mending. The toolkit assemblage really shows the vast variety of
materials and processes being discussed and put into practice by many skilled
menders throughout the symposium. I will treasure it whist it remains in my
hands, however I am still thinking about where the completed toolkit should
reside and any suggestions would be welcomed. </span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">I attended a research & development opportunity for ‘developing
small encounters’ Tuesday 8<sup>th</sup>-Friday
11<sup>th</sup> May, which cumulated with a sharing event on the Friday
evening, where we had the opportunity to show our work in progress to an
audience of invited participants. The R&D week was run by the ‘Small Encounters
Collective’ with mentoring & facilitation from Artist Adrian Howells.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">I was approaching the small encounters R&D week as an artist;
many others involved were from a performance/drama/ theatre background, which
allowed me to gain insight into areas of performance. Adrian shared his work in
an Artists’ talk, to give a background to his practice and areas of expertise
in one-to-one performance. I was drawn to notions of ‘ genuine exchange’
reconnecting & the emphasis of physical encounters in opposition to the
social networking phenomena explored in his work- themes that I am currently
exploring with the ‘unstructured
material’ concept. I became interested in developing skill sharing &
exchange as a ‘small encounter’ performance.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Some of the themes from Adrian’s Artist talk that inspired the
development of my own piece throughout the week:</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">-The quality of exchange- quality time with another
individual and how that can benefit us (well-being).</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">-Notion of ‘co-authoring’ an experience</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">-Creation of domestic spaces or sites promoting comfort</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">-Focussing on ‘real time’ & real people<i> (as opposed to ‘cyberspace’, internet
alter-egos)</i></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">My favourite piece of Adrian’s work is the <a href="http://www.list.co.uk/article/18233-the-garden-of-adrian/">‘Garden of
Adrian’</a> – this piece reminds me of the potential of my allotment space and
the various experiences I have whilst I am there (creative, personal,
transformative & sensory experiences, for example)</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">The week was busy, but well- balanced. Adrian’s talks &
mentoring allowed us to gain insight into working with one- to -one performance,
and the issues that arise in doing so. Adrian’s facilitated activities
consisted of an outdoor ‘5 senses meditation’- which made us all stop & simply touch, smell, taste & listen for an
hour in the park, and working on one-to-ones within the group- sharing
memories, exploring the senses & sharing ideas with one another in intimate
moments- or ‘small encounters’. I valued these experiences and they made me feel
that we should all be able to take time out within our busy days to reconnect
with the environment & those around us, but more importantly with ourselves.
The rest of the time was allocated to the production of our own ‘small
encounter’ performance.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">The working title of the piece I explored and delivered
during the R&D week was ’UNSTRUCTURED ENCOUNTER: the nature of creativity'.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">We were to work within experimental ‘portable tent -like
structures’. I had brought along the top part of a garden greenhouse to create a
frame which I intended to build around with felts, collected material &
William Morris fabrics & tent coverings, referencing nomadic structures such as
yurts.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">I am interested in exploring ways of transferring knowledge
through direct contact/exchange with individuals- as social skills have rapidly
been lost with the rise of social networking. I therefore aimed to create a
space that would act as an open studio- within the context of research &
development, aimed to invite audience participants in to share with them my
current research & inspiration one-to-one, and to encourage conversation about
creativity & what constitutes creative activity, I was also interested to
see if any recurring themes emerged amongst the visitors to the tent.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">I chose to work outdoors in the ‘arena’ area. We had a site
visit on the Wednesday, and I was immediately drawn to the outdoor space. Whilst
on the site recce, I was seeing potential resources in this area everywhere- 2
big lime trees, a nettle patch, and a comfrey patch. Initially I thought this
would be a great opportunity to share some of my forging knowledge and offer
individuals the chance to forage and taste with me as a ‘small encounter’, emphasising
that we can still be self-sufficient and surrounded by an abundant of natural
resources and edibles within the city environment. However, shortly after this
idea came into fruition we were advised not to go on the grass as the area had
been sprayed with weed killer. This was disappointing, but brought up
interesting conversations about careful picking within city environment, I also
thought this demonstrated how organisations are missing a trick- I suggested
that these weeds they were trying to kill could be a source of income- freshly
picked lime flower or nettle tea, could be served in the MAC café, for example
(visitors could even be invited to pick their own). </span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">In the Friday night performance event some of
these issues were discussed from the contemplative vantage point of the tent,
and two of the participants chose to add information on nettles and lime to ‘the
book of Unstrucured Encounters’, as I shared with them how to pick prepare & use the
plants.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">I offered a tracing exercise as a means of exchange;
participants chose something within the tent to respond to, whether it was
something they were drawn to visually, something they wanted to learn about, or
a randomly selected sentence from a book. The tracing exercise allowed
participants to trace over their selected text and then transfer the tracing
into ‘the book of small encounters’; the activity of tracing and re-tracing
acting to re-enforce or meditate on the chosen message. This quiet moment of ‘tracing’
allowed for conversations to arise about the chosen article. I then re-traced
the participant’s tracing and transferred it onto a postcard. Offering them a
fragment of information that they could use to start off their own research or
simply act a reminder of the encounter. ‘The book of small encounters’ was
created, a site-specific collective response that will act as a lasting document
of the R&D.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;">Further development</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">The opportunity allowed me to experiment with the building
of a portable structure that could become an on-going pop-up resource space,
for a physical encounter with the ‘unstructured material’ research; a small
space to exchange & skill swap, or simply talk about current issues. I
could tour various places with this. I also want to experiment building more
tent-like structures using natural materials (wooden frameworks). The size of
the tent was just right for a one-to-one encounter and feedback from
participants noted that a safe & comfortable environment was created;
however, I feel that the bigger the tent the more sharing at once can take
place. It would be interesting to experiment with different sized tents
designed for varying numbers of people. I would also like to experiment with adorning
the surface of the tents with information, slogans; patterns that would be
applied by painting, therefore the decoration would become both informative &
functional. </span></div>

as part of the big draw with the notion of ‘drawing’ on the landscape by the
planting of wild flowers. The slogan of ‘make your mark on the future
landscape’ was developed alongside this project. This concept relates to
permaculture principles. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;">The workshop aimed to offer a fun activity for youngsters at
the festival, with a springtime theme and deeper meaning. For the adults we had
more in depth information and a choice of carefully selected seeds suitable for
different growing conditions. For both children & adults the workshop began
with a discussion about where they would like to plant their seed bomb and why.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;">The workshop was an enjoyable process; I was particularly interested in hearing
the tales of where their loaded bombs were aimed for. One was off to Ireland!
The seed bomb workshops are still very much experimental and I have exchanged
contact details with participants, with the intention of sharing stories and
pictures of the bombing action, and the flourishing results (and to find out if
the mix allowed the flowers to flourish at all) I anticipated it may be a case
of trial and error, until a good mix/ method is achieved.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">However, I planted one of the seed bombs in a pot of compost
and left it on my windowsill at home, to test the mix, prior to going to the
festival. I returned home to find 3 tiny seedlings sprouting from the dampened
clay mixture, a sure sign of spring and affirmation of a good mix- I hope
everyone else’s seed bombs will flourish too!</span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;">I really look forward to delivering another workshop soon,
definitely closer to home this time as there is currently a lot of derelict
wasteland and areas in Stoke-on-Trent in need of vibrancy, wild flowers and beneficial
insects. People need to start taking responsibly for both their current and
future landscapes. Something as simple as planting a few wild flowers really
can make a difference now, engaging youngsters in this sort of activity
connects them with the land. The notion of growing and showing their ability to
grow something, and the impact that they can make on their local landscape is
powerful and positive stuff for youngsters to engage with. </span></div>

Wildheart Gathering happened at the beginning of May, in
west Sussex. Alongside delivering workshops at the festival I was able to experience
some workshops on offer. I came away armed with new practical knowledge and
feeling refreshed & inspired at the relevance and importance of the topics covered
in the workshops. Highlights included ‘Sacred Economics’ a talk &
discussion, based on the writing of Charles Eisenstein, about the history of
money from ancient gift economies to modern capitalism, and how we can now
begin to transition to a more connected, ecological, and sustainable way of
being/living. More on sacred economics <a href="http://sacred-economics.com/" style="color: #7f6000;">here</a><span style="color: #7f6000;">.</span>

<br />
A ‘Connecting to nature’ workshop lead by Thomas Schorr-kon, from <a href="http://www.trackways.co.uk/" style="color: #7f6000;">Trackways</a><span style="color: #7f6000;">,</span> included discussions about
the healing properties of English Plantain/Ribwort Palntain (Plantago lanceolata), in particular it’s numbing action when
crushed and rubbed on bites and stings and I have since been spotting an
abundance of it , and intend to make use of the leaves in a herbal tea, after
drying.<br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br />
The workshop also included techniques based on ‘stalking’
which included an activity of learning how to walk within in the natural
environment quietly, causing no
disruption to wildlife- learning to ‘blend’ with nature . We also did
blindfolded plant identification- identifying if a plant leaf was edible/poisonous
from it being placed in our hands with our eyes closed and using communication
techniques. These activities really focussed the mind and demonstrated two of
many techniques on how to re-connect with the natural world.<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
I also got involved with a permaculture & forest garden
talk, which included a forage in the nearby woodland. ..Below are some of the
plants and trees we were able to find, sample and discuss...<br />

<b>HAWTHORN</b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
Hawthorn is the flower associated with the coming of spring
and the Beltane festival that is celebrated at Wildheart; sure enough the young
buds were bursting into flower on some of the trees on the site. The eating of
the young flower buds and young leaves – traditionally known as ‘bread and
cheese’ by schoolchildren who would pick these to eat on the way to school in
days gone by. I recall planting a hawthorn hedge when at primary school, and helped
with planting around 100 plants around the perimeter of the local community
allotment last month. I now feel a
familiarity with the Hawthorn. Last September I attended my first Wildheart
gathering and on a wild food walk was introduced to picking & eating
hawthorn berries. I picked berries from the site and returned home to make
fruit leathers, which have been nibbled on throughout the winter months. I also
sourced an abundance of berries from Hanley Park, and have since returned to
the same trees to gather leaves for early summer salads & flowers to make a
herbal tincture with. There are ways of
foraging in the city, it is simply getting to know exactly what you are picking
and being sure it is safe, in an unsprayed, unpolluted area.</div>

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
I now can recognise a lime tree thanks to the walk with a
forage workshop, at Wildheart. Once you have interacted with a tree you begin to </span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">see</span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
them everywhere and realise the abundance of potential food, salads, and teas
around us daily. The main feature I now look for when identifying a lime is the
clustered growth of young shoots from the bottom of the tree. The lime has light
green heart shaped leaves with serrated edges. You can eat lime leaves in
salads, but I’m holding off and waiting for the sweet-scented lime flowers to
make an appearance in July, I want to dry these to make a calming &
restorative lime flower (or linden blossom) tea.</span><br />

<b>NETTLE </b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
I regularly pick nettles from my garden or wherever else I
find them, and make tea, use them instead of spinach in dishes or make nettle
soup. We were shown how to pick fresh nettle without them stinging, by
approaching the leaf from the underside, with confidence & firmness! Also, how
to eat them raw by rolling and chewing with the molars. A fun experiment. Even
when Nettles do sting, it’s not so bad- but a good tip is to beak the stem and
use the juice within the stem to rub onto the skin- this juice contains the
antidote to the sting. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
We also identified, picked and tasted ground ivy, &
