From the 16th to the 21st Century, so many laws to restrict who stays where. Exhibit at Museum of Homelessness, Finsbury Park.
Oh look! Science has found a cure for longevity. @felly500.bsky.social
“Colour is always the answer.” How lovely finally to meet @anfurman.bsky.social and experience his unique blend of exuberance and reflection. #Belonging #Ornament #Diversity
No ball games: croquet edition? As spotted in Montagu Square W1. It’s a residents only garden but tonight there was a (delightful) “Shakespeare in the Squares” performance of Love’s Labours Lost.
More positive framing of messages by Islington parks. Good for them. #Signs #EnjoyYourDay
John Soane’s “country” pad (Ealing!) now a short hop on the Elizabeth Line. #London
Tellingly announced via Insta by @faberbooks.bsky.social but not here (unless I missed it) #FullStop (See what I did there?)
Lousy photo (by me) but loved the spirit of this access/skateboard ramp set-up from Disability and Design at the V&A
Based in/near Newcastle? @drhick.bsky.social and I convening a roundtable on 18th, exploring how signs, fences and barriers affect our experience of place. Inspired by my “Keep On the Grass" exhibition now at the Farrell Centre. Contact me if interested in participating.
Can’t stop thinking about Rosilla. Hoping it was her much younger lover who commissioned the gravestone.
“Keep on the grass” v2 is much enhanced by the addition via @drhick.bsky.social and @draflint.bsky.social of words and images from the “In all our footsteps” project with @gsoh31.bsky.social
Lovely and convivial opening at the Farrell Centre of “What is an ideal city?” incorporating “Keep on the grass” www.farrellcentre.org.uk/ideal-city/
