Reconcile | Cysoni III at Adar

She will be owl and flowers
Tylluan a blodau fydd hi


We know she is owl, under soft feathers there is brittle winter flora. We articulate her unfolding.
Rydyn ni’n gwybod mai tylluan yw hi, o dan y plu meddal mae planhigion brau’r gaeaf.

We name her
Gwnawn ei henwi

a sound recording, words & images: transformations, bird, plant, woman.

PW12 at the Arnolfini

"Dw i'n Crwydro byd...." has had a new outing. A text created as a response to its showing in Falmouth has been added.

It was shown in the Lightroom at the Arnolfini for the Performance Writing weekend. The placing next to  Emilie O'Brian's "I'm doing this now" was thoughtful, connections of textile, body, making.

A link to its showing at Contexture in Falmouth

a duel, duet, dual performance.
A reading and echoing of an erasure version of Pride & Prejudice [a link to a link for more information on the text] based on movement and space. One reads the other repeats until they can't continue, roles are swapped. Sometimes you hear the cry of mercy - that means stop and swap. A lot of laughter.
Performed with sonic artist Lou Laurens

the full unedited half hour recoding - note it was performed at the bottom of basically a very metallic stairwell!

Contexture, University College Falmouth

Dw i'n crwydro'r byd yn chwilio am fy ngrud

Dw'n crwydro'r byd

Contexture, Woodlane Campus, University College Falmouth June 2011
woven paper on string, old paper [perhaps 40 years or more] printed, text printed on canvas.

about the creation
words printed on canvas

It was in a cube space of its own - I failed to take a photo of whole space - two people have said they will send image...but haven't...

by the accidental dropping of the D in the title, it became a question.
more words added on seing the work [it was in a lovely three sided cube...space...]

Dw'n crwydro'r byd

this work started its creation for Beyond Text: Making Unmaking
