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

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 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

There are photographs but due to reactions to my actions and words the copyright to show them publically has been withdrawn. 

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