Space Programme 2011

February 3d 2011. It was the middle of the night when I received the message. I was invited onto the SPACE Programme 2011. While jumping a hole in the air I wondered where I'd left my space suit.

The Space Programme offers artists of all disciplines an opportunity to collaborate, experiment and innovate in an inspiring environment. The project takes place over a two-week period at Castletown House Co. Kildare, it is an open ended process hosted by The Performance Corporation. The programme facilitates artists from diverse backgrounds to collaborate and explore their artistic process while removing the pressure to come up with an end product.

This weblog gives an insight in my thoughts and working process during the Space Programme and tells about some projects that came out of this wonderful opportunity.

Now here

Do you see the small cluster of trees in the middle of the left side of the left photo? That's where I am. In a pink house, surrounded by bog. If you look carefully you can see me sitting behind the window on the 1st floor. Staring.
The mountain looks golden now, the stones shattered on its flanks shine like diamonds. There is a purple cloud softly caressing its peak. Blue sky. The day is almost over.
I'm trying not to move. When I move I will forget.
