The poetic name of The Museum of Loss and Renewal evoked a strong desire in me to explore a specific point in my practice within this particular environment. To capture a potential moment of loss, and to hold it still long enough to transform it into renewal; to take time to evaluate, reflect on, and create an outline for my practice alongside the evolution of a recent multi disciplinary and collaborative project – this was my purpose in Collemacchia.
By staying close to core, within a landscape which is different to my Scottish island home, and with a group of supportive peers, I drew a forward path, and gently offered my own energy to the creative ecology of the Museum as I found my way, circled, got lost, and encountered other ways.
