Dislocation at night

I'm restless tonight ... 

the moon hides behind gentle clouds keeping the night under a velveted cloak  ..

and I feel dislocated ...

and I learn that Dr G Yunupingu has passed away in Darwin ...

and my soul whispers of a sadness that spills down my spine ...

and I flail in the fear that I might never feel happiness again

sadness seeps into every pore

I'm Mapping My Festival

"'Festival as a Map' ... encourages connections to the environment, [and] challenges artists, community groups and organisations ... to be mapped by process and practice and share their outcomes."

(The Festival Board, Shepparton Festival Program, 2017)

Nature plus plasticine plus ink plus fabric ... 

plus needle plus thread ... 

plus process ...
