Ashes to Ashes performance at CAS 10th Anniversary

Ashes to Ashes; Performance 21st March 2019 St Mary's Church Ashes to Ashes is a performance which was developed following a visit to The Jungle , refugee camp in Calais, during which the camp was devastated by a storm and fire, in 2015. The performance investigates the process of destruction/creation which is inherent to nature and to our life as human on earth.

Holes, Cracks, Gaps and Loopholes; a Micro-Residency at The Observatory(SPUD) , Mottisfont Abbey

supported by TVAF How the ‘French Artist’ fits in the local cultural and social landscape at Mottisfont.

I proposed to use the architecture and garden as a metaphor for the wider social context, exploring how artists use ‘ cracks holes and loopholes’ , to find their way into systems which they navigate, investigate and transform through their unique artistic vision.
