In Their Own Words

Some images from the exhibition I am showing in at Bank Street Arts. It was lovely to be part of this project and to have a cross discipline show, with writers, artists and jewellery artists all working on one project. http://www.bankstreetarts.com/

I hope it is shown in another venue soon, so more people get to see it.

The Images are by John Clark, thanks John!

ITOW: Bank Street Arts

In the evening as the light drew closer, we would convene by the fire and plan the duties for the following day. Huddled around the hearth I fashioned objects with the cotton, given by the Russian traders. The men fix tools and resolved where to travel for the next days hunting and the trading stations to visit.

"Nine artists working in different media were invited to describe one of their works and submit both the work and the description for inclusion in an exhibition. Nine poets were then invited to produce a poem as a response to one of these works and nine jewellers to produce a work inspired by an artist’s text. Texts, poems and jewellery were exhibited without further explanation. In an extension of this original project, for the Galvanise festival, the original participants were asked to invite further artists, poets and jewellers to participate. This current exhibition displays the work of all 108 participants in the project."
