Exhibition installed and more news!

My exhibition work is NOW in the church thank goodness as these stones/rocks were taking over my little house!! Here are some photos that I took when I'd finished. The first of 14 'markers' is placed in the entrance porch The next one is near the baptismal font - then the others are placed down the aisle finishing at the last 14th 'marker' and my final piece of work which I have called 'Deathbed' - it doesn't feel heavy or morbid to me - it is simply my reflection on the end of life's journey (which we will all face one day) - it feels peaceful and contemplative!! The whole installation relates to 'The Stations of the Cross' and Christ's journey to his tomb, see also what I wrote earlier about the work here!

Two of us have now installed our work and the other 2 artists will install work over the weekend The opening of the exhibition is next Wednesday 1 July 6-8.30pm at St John's Church, Leeds please come along if you are near enough.

When I got home from installing my work I found this up on my house

- it seemed quite symbolic of everything moving forward - a big transition - exciting and wobbley!!

Tomorrow I am off to the Creative Arts Retreat in Anglesey Wales for 4 days and am excited at the prospect of working outside during this workshop on Land Art - hoping the sun continues to shine like it has this last week! I'll be posting photos of what I get up to next week when I get back!

On the way home next Tuesday evening I will be passing Manchester Airport and picking up my daughter who is living and working in Bangladesh - I haven't seen her for a year so we are planning some quality time together during the 2 weeks she is home, visiting her sisters and a day in London is on the list - and I just know she will want to SHOP (till I drop no doult!)
