Hello again Blog, as Franny Swan would say. The first image is a reply to hers of me at the opening of Meeting Room on Thursday where we met for the first time after a long time of following each other’s blogs. I was glad she and Ros were still there as I arrived with husband and father in tow and Joanna, literally after stepping off the huge ladder needed to install The Voyagers http://www.studio308ltd.co.uk/Projects/Projects.ht… in Dover Museum.

The opening of The Voyagers – a fairly exclusive affair – was combined with the celebratory event to mark the actual day on which the Bronze Age Boat was discovered in Dover. So I was only allowed to invite a small number of people, most of whom were there. I was immensely relieved that Philippe Bazin who came over from Paris specially was pleased with the way I had installed his film and actually my whole feeling was one of relief generally at having got it all together in time. I had some fabulous helpers and wouldn’t have managed without them.

I got some great feedback for both shows which has hugely boosted my confidence. Thanks also to Franny for the lovely write up.

As I write, loads of comments have been coming in, in response to mine on Ruth Geldard’s blog, Two Steps backwards.

I will post images of The Voyagers as installed as soon as I have them!

ooh and I nearly forgot Joanna and I both had work in the Meeting Room which was very exciting.
