A quick update for September, just to say that he latest phase of the PlaceMaking work is now all wrapped up since I collected the photographic prints from Chinese Arts Centre yesterday. The show ran throughout the week with an evening opening on Thursday the 12th, at which I enjoyed talking to visitors and receiving lots of positive feedback.
If you are interested in reading more about the background to and my analysis of the project outcomes, you can now find an evaluative write-up on the Critical Documentation pages of this site. Alternatively, if listening is more your style than reading and you happen to be close to Manchester, I shall be giving a presentation about the work at CRITgroup on September the 25th and will be covering many of the critical points! Always looking forward, I’ll also give detail of proposals for the next steps planned in developing the project!

In other news, on Saturday, I enjoyed participating in the Wythenshawe Garden City Festival for the third year running with a slightly different crafts workshop for 2013! This year, crafty visitors made their own recycled tin plant pot so they could play their part in keeping Wythenshawe a green Garden City.
I have also now published my own contribution to the This Place Is project; This Place Is Summer 2013. Having spent so much time exploring other parts of the world this year, it seemed pertinent to complete a few booklets to both record my experiences and add to the project gallery. Interestingly, I wouldn’t have expected to feel a need for the fifth and final booklet of the set before I left the UK. I learnt a lot about other parts of the world but I also learnt a lot about the concept of ‘home’!
