The weather is changing the leaves are starting to turn and Autumn is apon us when you live your life away from the TV and screens you become more aware of the weather and how it dictates existance. Many people are not aware of it as they live a very disconnected life. Disconnected from the earth , disconnected from themselves and disconnected from the joy around that is life.
Connected to everything apart from themselves. Trapped in a media built hell of their own existance.Playing the game of life. Trying to make sense of their little part of it. Anyway at this time of the year I like to discnnect from some things and think of what is going to take me through the winter months. For me I have let go of the Belfast print Workshops. Still a member I've stood down as chair 4 years on any board and two as chair is enough for one organisation. I'm delighted that they have a vibrant gallery and membership and lots of interesting things in the pipeline.
So one thing goes away and another thing comes up? What shall it be? not telling yet.
Just enjoying focusing on my own work I have been working on two exhibition ideas and have a home for one of them.
So what's going on in Belfast ? lots of things you can see a shift in the population and oportunities a change in the economic landscape. Chilli fest is on Sat at the Black box -cool! Green living fair on at Castle Espie Sat and Sunday, Fashion souk on in the Ulster hall Sunday to say nothing of St Georges Market.
Interesting alternative things popping up - no longer the un alternative place that it used to be. Lots of Gallery open on a Saturday www.belfastgalleries.com CUlture night coming up . Maybe we are finally coming of age...................yeepie.
