isolated?

It must be the time of year but I notice that with the weather and the hale and the cold wind blowing outside that a number of people are feeling isolated. At least we have passed the most miserable day of the year. That point after Christmas when all the bills come in but we no longer have that festive afterglow.

So why not put this date in your diary for an exhibition called:

Isolated opening night Friday 30th January 7pm (why not go and start the weekend by not being not being isolated and meet other Art appreciators;-))

Curated by Peter Richards


until 5th of March 2009

…‘isolation’ – the feeling that you are all alone, that our not being understood – nobody understands, that you are outside of your society, you are without a connection, your social network has let you down. That’s when the fragments from the world of your playlist begins to echo from deep inside – surfacing when you need it most … as you sit alone … alone in company, with them all around, then they disappear into the thick, thick fog. You’re all on your own … fragments… ‘I’m doing the best that I can’ but ‘people … when you’re a stranger’ … articulate a comforting reassurance that you’re not alone… you’re alone together … somebody understands … they have empathy with, they know, they share, they save you from the ‘isolation’…The playlist isn’t real … it has been deleted… You’re on your own.

There is a warning that it is not suitable for everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! so that's sounds interesting..............................always good to push the envelope.
