Fascinating article in the @thestmagazine today. Photographer Danny Burrows has spent several months living with the Bruderhof communities - self sufficient, family orientated and where they relinquish all possessions, money and status. His conclusion? "In some way the Bruderhof face fewer everyday struggles than the rest of us. Money worries do not exist - having nothing, like everyone else must be liberating. the care of children and the elderly is shared. If this were how care in the community worked in the rest of Britain, we might be in a better place". This girl prepares for a night of camping alone in the woods as part of her field craft studies. Wowsers. Teaching young girls independence, how to be alone, how to be self sufficient. Duke of Edinburgh's this is not (have they shortened the routes from when we did it by the way?) and I can't help but think there is something in this. I posted on my story today a very useful course for women and in doing so realised I cant do half the things on the list. And I feel sick too about how much I coveted that Loewe basket yesterday. I still have a long way to go.

NEW PERSONAL PROJECT

I have been welcomed into the Bruderhof, a pacifist Christian community, and am working on a long term personal project documenting their lives in the 100th anniversary year of their formation.
I hope to spend many weeks in 2019 living in community with them to create a comprehensive and honest body of work.
Thanks to everyone I have met on the journey so far.

Urgh. Ive spent a very dangerous afternoon catching up reading my Crafts magazine and have found myself instastalking eveything to do with these beautiful @loewe baskets. Surely this has to be an art consultant's perfect bag. Plenty of space for a business card, phone and my tape measure. What more could a girl need? .

$I've just stumbled on this photo from a client I worked with more years ago than I care to admit (lets say it was in the first 5 years of my 15 years of experience)!!! I often joke that I have made up my job (well I kind of did) so its oddly reassuring to see that I still love the work I placed back then in my making-it-up-a-bit-as-I-go-along-days, even though I knew a mere fraction of what I do now. I guess this is because even though I know more, the one thing I have always done is only place work I love for a space and that is, luckily, enduring. And it still makes me smile when I bump into the client's husband and he says 'God Turner, I still love that Hoffer on the stairs' and I think that even though I know a lot more now - I'd like to think I'd still back myself to have placed that piece there even now and that makes me very happy indeed. 😊 . . .
