September

 
Summer is in its last throws, with lilac September skies, and horse chestnut leaves starting to turn. I'm not quite sure if I'm ready for the new term or not. But that doesn't matter because right now I have the distraction of collaborating with the mixed media artist Anna Brass on an Arts Council funded project for Unreal Estates. We are bringing to life an old United Reform Chapel currently for sale in Norwich. The chapel needs a new roof and sadly the congregation can't afford it, meaning this glorious building, exquisitely made for one thing, is on the brink of transformation, all for the sake of corroded roofing nails. The story moved us to want to tell it in words and images. More to follow, plus an online exhibition and hopefully, all being well, a real life exhibition in Norwich in 2022. Though maybe it's just me, but it's hard to plan that far ahead.
