︎︎︎ Brexit mice, rant to accompany a painting. Short snippets of hope amongst the darkest: shortest day, longest night. Hopeful notes to leave folks whilst I’m not here because nothing has changed since March, except the seasons, so let’s meet in London for missed lunches in tier 2. Images of photos from phones, marking moments of happiness and hope within a banner of lightness. A moment in 2019 when we were happy, when we find the strength to say no to things when the conditions (i.e., a pandemic) aren’t right. The moment I find a caterpillar and let it crawl across my fingers. Images of caterpillars. Smooth jazz background. Opening and closing desktop windows on screen recording. Poems. Signs/graffiti on the side of buildings in Walsall and caterpillar ceremonies. Here’s to screen sharing extravaganzas. 6:30pm, next Thursday, be there or be not-represented-by-screen-recordings.
