Wapping to Elephant

Looking for Orwell in Sheffield (redux)

So good to host our amazing colleagues from the Anibar Film Festival (Kosovo) at UAL LCC in London last week 🙌 This is the 3rd year of our partnership - looking forward to more 😊 🍿 🎥

7pm, ice-cream in hand, citronella burning to keep les petites bestioles away, reinforced (maybe?) by the lemon balm that’s flourishing in my tiny garden … I remembered I had this book by Claire Wilcox on my shelf and honestly, it’s perfect for this gorgeous, still, sunny, warm evening ☀️🍦🐝 🌻

“The uninhabitable: the skimped, the airless, the small, the mean, the shrunken, the very precisely calculated

The uninhabitable: the confined, the out-of-bounds, the encaged, the bolted, walls jagged with broken glass, judas windows, reinforced doors.”

Georges Perec, Species of Spaces

(when light is memory)

“The light of memory, or rather the light that memory lends to things, is the palest light of all. I am not quite sure whether I am dreaming or remembering, whether I have lived my life or dreamed it.”

Eugène Ionesco

(windswept)

the beginnings of a typology of uninhabitable spaces

London days. It was so good to see the Sassoferrato - it’s been away for so long. And the nesting birds. Such a shame that the swan’s nest was entirely entangled with plastic waste…

On this day in 2018, when I was in Beirut ♥️

“Like paradise itself, the word ‘landscape’ is unexpectedly slippery. We think of it as referring directly to the land, but it originates instead with paint”.

Olivia Laing, The Garden Against Time

(leaving Hull)

Unfolding Narratives - a great exhibition by LCC PhD researchers
1. Andreea Elle Vas (an exquisite, layered film - a new archive of memories of Romania under Ceauşescu)
2. Crystal Lezhi Zhang (an exploration of how Venetian glass & Cantonese porcelain communicate environmental and social realities)
