finding firm ground

Yesterday I found the festival site and met with festival folk (including the nicest, most helpful volunteers possible)

One of the biggest challenges of an appointment like this is finding a way to work with the restrictions of the site and tiny time period, and to be mindful of the theme and needs of other aspects of the festival, without losing sight of who you are as an artist...

I think you need to be flexible, maintain a sense of humour and leave the diva at home.

At the same time it's important to stand up for your artistic vision otherwise you risk being swallowed alive by the hustle and bustle.


wish me luck today as I pick my way through the marshland....


(ps I started the morning with a small beach/book/artwork....)
