micro-residency for artist in libraries 6 weeks to respond by blogging, thinking, making

Today Simon Ryder and I did our first workshops in the two designated libraries in the Forest of Dean. Thanks to everyone that made it – it was a really fascinating day and everyone participated fully.

Simon will be blogging about this micro-residency – he has less than 6 weeks to respond to the forest and the unique nature of the place – both literally and metaphorically.

By meeting people and conducting personal research, he will become entrenched in a myriad of thoughts! I’ll leave him to share those thoughts in his blog – to get them sent to your mailbox regularly subscribe by signing up on his website.

Who knows, it may not be long before some participants from the workshops begin to start blogging too…..

Great mix of people  too – architects, engineers, librarians, ex-policemen, editors to name but a few.

Here’s a few pics by Forest photographer Chris Morris
