This wonderful book sparked some wonderful conversations at our #Allhallows #Readers group @WordsworthGras - and has also encouraged some new readers! What a joy they have in store
Great evening tonight exploring the Ridiculous in #Romanticism and beyond! Thanks to Andy McInnes, Rita Dashwood and @CowtonJ A great take, can't wait to see the exhibition @WordsworthGras
Great to share your thinking & work in progress Alison; your process in action, in a dance with Hedda Sterne, Virginia Woolf! Love your white floor staging - the different energy shifting the work about can spark - and Sterne not overthinking, editing later for an unknown future
