Now a story about what I am doing at the moment:

I am reading up on nomadic culture from various places of the globe: Tibetan, Mongolian and Afghani nomads, the Rabari from Rajastan. African nomadic tribes like the Tuareg and the Wodaabi. It is so amazing how they live their life and we can actually learn a huge lesson of them. They live WITH their environment and we try to FIGHT it. Just take one guess which way of life is more sustainable…?

Next to that I am wrapping my head around a group exhibition coming up in June. It is a show on miniatures, not bigger than 20 cm. The object that I’ll make will be spiritual, because this nomad research has put me into that atmosphere. Another reason why spirituality would be very suitable is the fact that small objects draw the viewer very close, which creates an intimate relationship between both.

Jackie Weaver And Canberra Theatre

This week Australian actor Jackie Weaver visited Canberra theatre to promote her one women show, The Blonde the Brunette and the Vengeful Redhead. Six panels from the fybermotion installation were used as the backdrop for an interview with Jackie, Jackie was interviewed by Lisa Ridgley. A Chat with Jac, great title and maded it a comfortable evening without the usual stiff line of questions. Mined you the pink champagne helped every one relax.

Lucie and I, along with lucie's daughters Lyn and Ruby ( pictured below) and my daughers Hannah and Lauren went along for the evening.

It was a great evening and nice to see the panels in a different situation than hanging on it's large heavy metal frame.
